When the solubility is the amount of solute that dissolved in a unit volume of the solvent.

and when the balanced reaction equation is:

so, by using the ICE table:

            Cd(OH)2(s) ↔  Cd2+  +  2OH- 

initial                               0             0

change                          +X           +2X

Equ                                  X             2X

so the Ksp expression = [Cd2+] [OH-]^2 

and we have Ksp = 7.2 x 10^-15

and when we assume the solubility = X
  
by substitution:

7.2 x 10^-15 = (X) (2X)^2

7.2 x 10^-15 = X*4X^2

7.2 x 10^-15 = 4X^3

∴X = ∛(7.2x10^-15)/4

      = 1.22 x 10^-5 M

∴ the solubility = X = 1.22 x 10^-5 M

How does nuclear fission of Uranium - 234 result in electricity being generated?
nevsk [136]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The use of Uranium - 234 to generate electricity depends on a fission reaction. The uranium nuclide is bombarded by fast moving neutrons leading to a chain reaction. Control rods and moderators are used to keep the nuclear reaction under control.

As the nuclear reaction proceeds, heat is generated and steam is consequently produced. This steam is used to turn a turbine and electricity is thereby generated.

What rules should you follow when adding and subtracting ?
wariber [46]
Adding and subtracting with scientific notation may require more care, because the rule for adding and subtracting exponential expressions is that the expressions must havelike terms<span>. Remember that to be </span>like terms<span>, two expressions must have exactly the same base numbers to exactly the same powers. Thinking about decimal arithmetic, the requirement that we have the same powers makes sense, because that guarantees that all of the place values are lined up properly.</span>
