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

Which of the following is an example of violating aufbau principle in filling electronic orbitals
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

 [Ne] 3s² 3d³

Explanation:

According to aufbau's principle of filling electronic orbitals, the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies.

One important to know about this principle is that sublevels do not fill in numerical order.

The order of filling is;

 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f e.tc

From the given choices the wrong one is;

   [Ne] 3s² 3d³

3p fills up before 3d;
