There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc

acetate, Zn(CH3COO)2, is 43.0 g/L, what is the solubility product Ksp of this compound?

Answer:

K_{sp} of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}:

Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}

Solubility product of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} (K_{sp}) is written as-            K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}

Where [Zn^{2+}] and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of Zn^{2+} and CH_{3}COO^{-} respectively.

Molar mass of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = \frac{43.0}{183.48}M = 0.234M

1 mol of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} gives 1 mol of Zn^{2+} and 2 moles of CH_{3}COO^{-} upon dissociation.

so,   [Zn^{2+}] = 0.234 M and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] = (2\times 0.234)M=0.468M

so, K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513

How many moles in 2 h2o molecules
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

2 molecules of water represents 3.32 x 10^-24 moles of water.

Explanation:

To find the solution to this problem, you have to use the concept of Avogadro´s number, that is in 1 mol of any element o compound there are                    6.022 x 10^23 molecules. Then,

1 mol H2O ------------- 6.022 x 10^23 molecules

x= 3.32 x 10^-24 ---- 2 molecules.

2 molecules of water represents 3.32 x 10^-24 moles of water.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

A pure solid is heated and turns into a pure liquid.

Explanation:

No colour change recorded, only change of state, hence this is a physical change - physical changes I.e. change of state and temperature are not chemical reactions.
