Answer: The pressure inside the bag of potato chips in Pascal's is 109

Explanation:

Pressure of the gas is defined as the force exerted by the particles on the walls of the container. S.I unit of pressure is pascal.

Thus units of pressure can be mm Hg or atmosphere or bar or Pascal.

Given : Pressure inside the bag is the same as atmospheric pressure at the factory = 0.82 mmHg

Pressure 760 mm Hg = 101325 Pa

0.82 mm Hg = $\frac{101325}{760}\times 0.82=109Pa$

Thus the pressure inside the bag of potato chips in Pascal's is 109

A solution contains [Ba2+] = 5.0 × 10−5 M, [Zn2+] = 2.0 × 10−7 M, and [Ag+] = 3.0 × 10−5 M. Sodium oxalate (Na2C2O4) is slowly a

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

BaC₂O₄, then ZnC₂O₄, then Ag₂C₂O₄

Explanation:

1. Calculate the equilibrium concentrations of oxalate ion

Let [C₂O₄²⁻] = c

(a) Barium oxalate

BaC₂O₄ ⇌ Ba²⁺ + C₂O₄²⁻

E/mol·L⁻¹: 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ c

Ksp = [Ba²⁺][C₂O₄²⁻] = 5.0 × 10⁻⁵c = 1.5 × 10⁻⁸

c = (1.5 × 10⁻⁸)/(5.0 × 10⁻⁵) = 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol·L⁻¹

(b) Zinc oxalate

ZnC₂O₄ ⇌ Zn²⁺ + C₂O₄²⁻

E/mol·L⁻¹: 2.0 × 10⁻⁷ c

Ksp = [Zn²⁺][C₂O₄²⁻] = 2.0 × 10⁻⁷c = 1.35 × 10⁻⁹

c = (1.35 × 10⁻⁹)/(2.0 × 10⁻⁷) = 6.8 × 10⁻³ mol·L⁻¹

(c) Silver oxalate

Ag₂C₂O₄ ⇌ 2Ag⁺ + C₂O₄²⁻

E/mol·L⁻¹: 3.0 × 10⁻⁵ c

Ksp = [Ag⁺]²[C₂O₄²⁻] = (3.0× 10⁻⁵)²c = 9.0 × 10⁻¹⁰c = 1.1 × 10⁻¹¹

c = (1.1 × 10⁻¹¹)/(9.0 × 10⁻¹⁰) = 0.012 mol·L⁻¹

2. Decide the order of precipitation

BaC₂O₄ will precipitate when c > 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ mol·L⁻¹

ZnC₂O₄ will precipitate when c > 6.8 × 10⁻³ mol·L⁻¹

Ag₂C₂O₄ will precipitate when c > 0.028 mol·L⁻¹

This happens to be the order of increasing concentration of oxalate ion.

The order of precipitation is

BaC₂O₄, then ZnC₂O₄, then Ag₂C₂O₄

Read the information about the halogen family.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Chlorine is a member of the halogen family known as a toxic yellowish green gas. Inhalation of chlorine for a prolonged period of time leads to pulmonary edema. If a person comes in contact with compressed liquid chlorine the person may experience frostbite of the skin and eyes.

However chlorine is very useful in water disinfection and is preferred in water treatment because it provides residual disinfection of the treated water.

Chlorine gas may be dissolved in NaOH to form oxochlorate I which is used as a bleach in cleaning.

when a solution of sodium chloride is added to a solution of copper(ii) nitrate, no precipitate is observed. Write the molexular

zhuklara [117]

Explanation:

Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl(aq) --> CuCl2(aq) + 2NaNO3(aq)

Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaOH(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

A light blue precipitate of Cu(OH)2 is formed and NaNO3 in solution.

Cu(NO3)2(aq) --> Cu2+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq)

2NaOH(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

Cu2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) --> Cu(OH)2(aq)

2Na+(aq) + 2NO3^-2(aq) --> 2NaNO3(aq)

The reaction in both Questions 1 and 2 is called Double displacement reaction. A double-replacement reaction exchanges the cations and/or or the anions of two ionic compounds. A precipitation reaction is a double-replacement reaction in which one product is a solid precipitate (precipitated) while the other in solution.

Since the cation and anions in Qustion 1 were exchanged, the same was done for Question 2, hence the identity of the precipitate in Question 2 was got.
