A student was given a solid containing a mixture of nitrate salts. The sample completely dissolved in water, and upon addition o

f dilute HCl, no precipitate formed. The pH was lowered to about 1 and H2S was bubbled through the solution. No precipitate formed. The pH was adjusted to 8 and H2S was again bubbled in. This time, a precipitate formed. Which compounds might have been present in the unknown? The list to choose from: Cr(NO3)3 Co(NO3)2 NaNO3 Ni(NO3)2 Bi(NO3)3 Ca(NO3)2 Sn(NO3)4 Cd(NO3)2

Answer:

Explanation:

   The nitrates of Bi,Sn and Cd is ruled out because their sulfides are insoluble in acidic medium.

Nitrates of Ni or Co may be present because their sulfides are insoluble in basic medium. The presence of other nitrates are ruled out.

One mole of an ideal gas with a volume of 1.0 L and a pressure of 5.0 atm is allowed to expand isothermally into an evacuated bu
Deffense [45]

Answer:

w= - 1.7173 kJ, q= 1.7173 kJ, q(rev) = 1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

Explanation:

Okay, from the question we are given the information below;

Number of moles, n= 1 mole; initial volume, v(1) = 1.0 litres (L); pressure (p) = 5atm, final volume(v2) = 2.0 Litres(L) ; the workdone, w= not given; the heat, q and q(rev)= not given and the gas was said to expand isothermally.

So, this question is a question from the part of chemistry known as thermodynamics. Therefore, grip yourself we are delving into thermodynamics 'waters' now.

For expansion isothermally; the workdone, w= -nRT ln v2/v1.

Where T= temperature= 25° C = 298 k and R= gas constant.

Therefore; workdone, w = - 1 × 8.314 × 298 × ln(2/1).

Workdone,w= - 1717.32204643. =

- 1717.3 Joules (J).

==> Workdone,w= - 1.7173 kJ.

Then, we are to find q. q can be solved by using the first law of thermodynamics, which by mathematical representation is:

∆U= q + w. Where ∆U= change in internal enegy. Since the question is dealing with isothermal expansion, there is this rule that says for an isothermal expansion ∆U = 0.

Hence, 0 =q + [- 1717.3 Joules (J)].

q=1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

Finally, the q(rev) which is= nRT ln (v2/V1).

q(rev) = 1 × 8.314 × 298 ln (2/1).

q(rev) = 1717.3 J = 1.7173 kJ.

PS: please note the negative signs in the workdone and the positive sign in the q(rev).

The iodide ion reacts with hypochlorite ion (the active ingredient in chlorine bleaches) in the following way:
LiRa [457]

Explanation:

(a)  As the given chemical reaction equation is as follows.

           OCl^{-} + I^{-} \rightarrow OI^{-1} + Cl^{-1}

So, when we double the amount of hypochlorite or iodine then the rate of the reaction will also get double. And, this reaction is "first order" with respect to hypochlorite and iodine.

Hence, equation for rate law of reaction will be as follows.

              Rate = K \times [OCl^{-}] \times [l^{-}]

(b)  Since, the rate equation is as follows.

                    Rate = K [OCl^{-}][l^{-}]

Let us assume that ([OCl^{-}] = [l^{-}])

Putting the given values into the above equation as follows.

             1.36 \times 10^{-4} = K \times (1.5 \times 10^{-3})^2

            1.36 \times 10^{-4} = K \times (2.25 \times 10^{-6})

                   K = \frac{1.36 \times 10^{-4}}{2.25 \times 10^{-6}}

                      = 60.4 M^{-1}sec^{-1}

Hence, the value of rate constant for the given reaction is 60.4 M^{-1}sec^{-1} .

(c) Now, we will calculate the rate as follows.

                Rate = K [OCl^{-}][l^{-}]

                         = 60.4 \times (1.8 \times 10^{3}) \times (6.0 \times 10^{4})

                        = 6.52 \times 10^{5}

Therefore, rate when [OCl^{-}] = 1.8 \times 10^{3} M and [I^{-}]= 6.0 \times 10^{4} M is  6.52 \times 10^{5}.

Condensation is the change from liquid to water cycle
kogti [31]

Answer:

hi! merry xmas!

Explanation:

Condensation is the process where water vapor becomes liquid. It is the reverse of evaporation, where liquid water becomes a vapor.

Condensation happens one of two ways: Either the air is cooled to its dew point or it becomes so saturated with water vapor that it cannot hold any more water.
