What should be done to investigate the cause of the contamination of well water?

1 answer:

7 0

One way is for <span>a landowner to gather as much information as possible about his or her private water well, to know how it works, as well as who has had the land before them. The landowner needs to see if anyone has used pesticides in the area, as it can contaminate the well water. This is the most common way. The landowner can also check to see if any other chemicals have been spilt in the area or even a gas or oil leak, as that too can cause the contamination of well water.

I hope this helps.</span>

After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2 is

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵

Explanation:

<em>Full question is:</em>

<em>After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2+ is 2.8 × 10–2 M. What is Ksp for PbCl2?</em>

<em />

When an excess of PbCl₂ is added to water, Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are produced following Ksp equilibrium:

PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2Cl⁻

Ksp = [Pb²⁺] [Cl⁻]²

If an excess of PbCl₂ was added, an amount of Pb²⁺ is produced (X) and twice Pb²⁺ is produced as Cl⁻ (2X):

Ksp = [X] [2X]²

Ksp = 4X³

As X is the amount of Pb²⁺ = 2.8x10⁻²M:

Ksp = 4(2.8x10⁻²)³

Which of the following changes can alter the form of a substance but does not necessarily change it to an other substance?

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The physical changes can alter the form of a substance but does not necessarily change it to an other substance

Explanation:

The physical properties of matter is one that does not depend on composition.It just change the form of matter into another form with changing into composition.

Physical properties include: appearance, texture, color, odor, melting point, boiling point, density, solubility, polarity, and many others.

The three states of matter are: solid, liquid, and gas. The melting point and boiling point are related to changes of the state of matter. All matter may exist in any of three physical states of matter.

Example:

When water is boiled then it change into vapors. Now the form of water is change but its composition is same like water
When water freezes into ice, now phase are different i.e water is liquid while ice is solid but both have same composition.
