larger is the value of $Ksp$ the higher will the solubility of solid in water.

What is called compound?

In chemistry, a compound is a substance made up of two or more different chemical elements combined in a fixed ratio.
When the elements come together, they react with each other and form chemical bonds that are difficult to break.
These bonds form as a result of sharing or exchanging electrons between atoms.

The equation for the dissociation of a solid MX in water is given below

MX(s) ⇄ Mⁿ⁺(aq) + Xⁿ⁻ (aq)

Assume s be the solubility of MX in pure water, then the equilibrium concentrations of ions are

[ Mⁿ⁺] = s

[ Xⁿ⁻ ] = s

The expression for the solubility product constant ( $Ksp$ ) is as follows

$Ksp$ = [ Mⁿ⁺] [ Xⁿ⁻ ]

= s²

That is, larger is the value of $Ksp$ the higher will the solubility of solid in water.

Which pair of atoms has the highest electronegativity difference? Na-F Ca-F H-F C-F F-F

babunello [35]

The answer is Na-F. The F has highest electronegativity among these elements. So we need to find the element with smallest electronegativity. And this element is Na.

If an ideal gas has a pressure of 5.49 atm, a temperature of 88.78 °c, and has a volume of 22.03 l, how many moles of gas are in

kirza4 [7]

N = (PV)/RT
(T = 88.78 + 273 = 361.78K)
(R = 22.4/273 = 0.082)
= (5.49 x 22.03)/(0.082 x 361.78) = ?
Put it into the calculator. It's hard to do that on a mobile phone.

The electronegativity is 2.1 for h and 1.9 for pb. based on these electronegativities pbh4 would be expected to

Sedbober [7]

PbH4 will be formed as a result of a polar covalent bond between the H and the Pb.

Since H is more electronegative than the Pb, it is, thus, expected that the H would be able to pull the electron charge towards itself. This will result in the H being negative.

Based on this:
PbH4 would be expected to have polar covalent bonds with a partial negative charges on the H atoms.
