Magnesium hydroxide is used in several antacid formulations. When it is added to water it dissociates into magnesium and hydroxi

de ions. Mg(OH)2(s) Mg2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) The equilibrium constant at 25°C is 8.9 ´ 10-12. One hundred grams of magnesium hydroxide is added to 1.00 L of water and equilibrium is established. What happens to the solution if another 10 grams of Mg(OH)2 are now added to the mixture?

Answer:

If you add 10 more grams of Mg(OH)₂, the solution will shift the equilibrium to the ions production to consume the excessive Mg(OH)₂.

Explanation:

Mg(OH)₂(s) → Mg²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

K = 8.9 x 10⁻¹²

K = [Mg²⁺][OH⁻]²

The concentration of Mg(OH)₂ does not enter the equation because it is in the solid state.

[Mg²⁺] = x

[OH⁻]²  = 2x

K = x.(2x)²

K = 4x³

4x³ =  8.9 x 10⁻¹²

x = 2.07 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L

At equilibrium:

[Mg²⁺] = x = 2.07 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L

[OH⁻]²  = 2x = 4.14 x 10⁻⁴ mol/L

10 points !! Which can happen during a physical change?
Sveta_85 [38]
I think that the answer is A because if you think about water for an example. When water turns into ice, it's still technically water, just the molecules are frozen. The water is physically changed. It could also see why you think it is B but I don't think so completely. It doesn't really make sense to me. So I'd choose A. It's definitely not C or D.

The table shows the conditions during two trials of a reaction.
zysi [14]

Answer:

The correct option is;

The reaction pathway for the trials is different

Explanation:

The effect of a catalyst in a chemical reaction is to increase the rate of a reaction by changing the pathway or mechanism of the reaction and/or to lower the transition state's energy thereby lowering the activation energy of the reaction

The pathway of the reaction is changed by the catalyst by the formation of intermediate compounds by the catalyst which require lower activation energy to form the products than the original non-catalyzed reactants. In the process the catalyst is regenerated, thereby, not taking part in the reaction.

P4O10 -> 4P+5O2 How many moles of phosphorus would be produced if 5.3 mol of P4O10 reacted?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

21.2 moles.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, we can see there is a 1:4 mole ratio between tetraphosphorous decaoxide and phosphorous; therefore, the following proportional factor provides the requested moles of phodphorous:

n_P=5.3molP_4O_{10} *\frac{4molP}{1molP_4O_{10}} \\\\n_P=21.2molP

Best regards!
