Answer:

c) The Ksp remains the same.

Explanation:

The solubility product constant, Ksp is essentially an equilibrium constant which represents the extent to which a solute dissolves in a solvent.

In the given situation, the PbCl2 equilibrium can be represented as:

PbCl_{2}(s)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)

Ksp = [Pb^{2+}][Cl^{-}]^{2}

Addition of NaCl will introduce a common ion i.e. Cl-. This would increase its concentration and solubility. This will change the reaction quotient. However, the value of Ksp which is the 'equilibrium constant' will reamin unaffected since it is a constant at a given temperature.

For the question above, the answer would be C. The Ksp remains the same. The common ion effect will change the concentrations of the ions in thesolution, but the value of Ksp is CONSTANT at a constant temperature thus Ksp does not change.

How are natural polymers and synthetic polymers similar?
Anna [14]

Answer: C) Both are made up of monomers that are linked by covalent bonds

Explanation: Polymers are large molecules which are formed by combination of small repeating units called as monomers.

Natural polymers are found in nature such as cellulose whereas synthetic polymers are synthesized in laboratories such as Nylon 6,6.

All the polymers, whether natural or synthetic are made up of monomers and are joined by covalent bonds.
