It happens through precipitation when water evaporates from the suns rays and rises into the atmosphere

It goes from lakes and as the temp rises, it evaporates into clouds. from there, the clouds get heavy, and it produces rain, and the rain forms rivers and then back into lakes.

If a hard water solution is saturated with calcium carbonate, what volume of the solution has to evaporate to deposit 1.00×102 m
olasank [31]
I think the Ksp for Calcium Carbonate is around 5×10⁻⁹
(I don't know if this is the Ksp value that you use because I read somewhere that this value can vary.  You should probably check with your teacher with what Ksp value they want you to use)

the equation for the dissociation CaCO₃ in water is CaCO₃(s)⇄Ca²⁺(aq)+CO₃²⁻(aq) which means that the concentration of Ca²⁺ is equal to the concentration of CO₃²⁻ in solution.  For every molecule of CaCO₃ that dissolves, one atom of Ca²⁺ and one molecule of CO₃²⁻ is put into solution which is why the concentrations are equal in solution. 

Since Ksp=[Ca²⁺][CO₃²⁻] and we know that [Ca²⁺]=[CO₃²⁻] we can rewrite the equation as Ksp=x² since if you say that [Ca²⁺]=[CO₃²⁻] when you multiply them together you get the concentration squared (I am calling the concentration x for right now).

when solving for x:
5×10⁻⁹=x²
x=0.0000707
Therefore [Ca²⁺]=[CO₃²⁻]=0.0000707mol/L which also shows how much calcium carbonate is dissolved per liter of water since the amount of Ca²⁺ and CO₃²⁻ in solution came from the calcium in a 1 to 1 molar ratio as shown in the equation (the value we found for x is the molar solubility of calcium carbonate).

Using the fact that the molar mass of calcium carbonate is 100.09g/mol you can use dimensional analysis as fallows:
(0.0000707mol/L)(100.09g/mol)=0.007077g/L
That means that there is 0.007077g of Calcium carbonate that can precipitate out of 1L of water.

since the question is asking for how much water needs to be evaporated to precipitate 100mg (0.1g) of Calcium you have to do the fallowing calculation:
(0.1g)/(0.007077g/L)=14.13L of water.
14.13L of water needs to evaporate in order to precipitate out 100mg of calcium carbonate

These types of questions can get long and confusing so I bolded parts that were important to try to guide you through it more easily.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

Solve pls brainliest
sammy [17]

Answer:

Even though the two substances possess many similarities, they have some unique properties. In turn, since they have the same properties, if they were the same substance, it would make matters worse, if the same chemical was in two different places, there would not be a difference between them since they are the same, just as it is with are two different chemicals would have differing properties since they are two properties would vary from one another since they are 2 totally different things!

When something heats up, new energy is created, and when something cools down, energy is destroyed. agree disagree
olga nikolaevna [1]
Disagree because in the law of conservation of mass, it states energy cannot be created or destroyed
