What reaction might we use to synthesize nickel sulfate, NiSO4?

1 answer:

8 0

As I understand from your question, we should synthesize nickel sulfate first from nickel (II) oxide and sulfuric acid and second from nickel carbonate and sulfuric acid.

The chemical reactions will look like this:

NiO (s) + H₂SO₄ (aq) → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂O (l)

NiCO₃ (aq)* + H₂SO₄ → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂CO₃ (aq)

but carbonic acid will decompose to carbon dioxide and water

H₂CO₃ (aq) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)

(*) NiCO₃ has a poor solubility in water, but enough to start the reaction.

Calculate the molar solubility of PbBr2 (Ksp = 4.67x10-6) in 0.10M NaBr solution.

Softa [21]

Explanation:

$PbBr_{2}$ will dissociate into ions as follows.

$PbBr_{2}(s) \rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq) + 2Br^{-}(aq)$

Hence, $K_{sp}$ for this reaction will be as follows.

$K_{sp} = [Pb^{2+}][Br^{-}]^{2}$

We take x as the molar solubility of $PbBr_{2}$ when we dissolve x moles of solution per liter.

Hence, ionic molarities in the saturated solution will be as follows.

$[Pb^{2+}]$ = $[Pb^{2+}]_{o}$ + x

$[Br^{-}]^{2}$ = $[Br^{-}]_{o}$ + 2x

So, equilibrium solubility expression will be as follows.

$K_{sp}$ = $([Pb^{2+}]_{o} + x)([Br^{-}]_{o} + 2x)^{2}$

Each sodium bromide molecule is giving one bromide ion to the solution. Therefore, one solution contains $[Br^{-}]_{o}$ = 0.10 and there will be no lead ions. So, $[Pb^{2+}]_{o}$ = 0

So, $[Br^{-}]_{o} + 2x$ will approximately equals to $[Br^{-}]_{o}$ .

Hence, $K_{sp} = x[Br^{-}]^{2}_{o}$

$4.67 \times 10^{-6} = x \times (0.10)^{2}$

x = $4.67 \times 10^{-4}$ M

Thus, we can conclude that molar solubility of $PbBr_{2}$ is $4.67 \times 10^{-4}$ M.

Calculate the volume occupied by 272g

cupoosta [38]

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

Explanation:

Given:

mass of methane( $CH_{4}$ ) = 272 grams

pressure (P) = 250 k Pa =250×10^3 Pa

temperature(t) = 54°C =54 + 273 = 327 K

Also given:

R = 8.31JK-1 mol-1 ,

Molar mass of methane( $CH_{4}$ ) = 16.0 grams

We know;

According to the ideal gas equation,

P × V = n × R × T

here,

n = m÷M

n =272 ÷ 16

n = 17 moles

Therefore,

250×10^3 × V = 17 × 8.31 × 327

V = ( 17 × 8.31 × 327 ) ÷ ( 250×10^3 )

V = 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters

1.5 moles are present in 60.0 grams of calcium.

Andrew [12]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, let us calculate the number of mole present in 60g of calcium. This is illustrated below:

Mass of Ca = 60g

Molar Mass of Ca = 40g/mol

Number of mole Ca =....?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of Ca = 60/40

Number of mole Ca = 1.5 moles.

From the calculations made above, we can see that 1.5 moles are present in 60.0 grams of calcium
