If the heat given off in the dissolving reaction is less than the heat required to break apart the solid, the net dissolving reaction is endothermic. The addition of more heat facilitates the dissolving reaction by providing energy to break bonds in the solid. This is the most common situation where an increase in temperature produces an increase in solubility for solids.

The use of first-aid instant cold packs is an application of this solubility principle. A salt such as ammonium nitrate is dissolved in water after a sharp blow breaks the containers for each. The dissolving reaction is endothermic - requires heat. Therefore the heat is drawn from the surroundings, the pack feels cold.

The effect of temperature on solubility can be explained on the basis of Le Chatelier's Principle. Le Chatelier's Principle states that if a stress (for example, heat, pressure, concentration of one reactant) is applied to an equilibrium, the system will adjust, if possible, to minimize the effect of the stress.  This principle is of value in predicting how much a system will respond to a change in external conditions.  Consider the case where the solubility process is endothermic (heat added). An increase in temperature puts a stress on the equilibrium condition and causes it to shift to the right.  The stress is relieved because the dissolving process consumes some of the heat. Therefore,  the  solubility  (concentration)  increases  with  an  increase  in  temperature.    If  the process is exothermic (heat given off). A temperature rise will decrease the solubility by shifting the equilibrium to the left.

14) The central iodine atom in the ICl4- ion has __________ nonbonded electron pairs and __________ bonded electron pairs in its
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Two non bonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs

Explanation:

An image of the compound as obtained from chemlibretext is attached to this answer.

The ion ICl4- ion, is an AX4E2 ion. This implies that there are four bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons. As expected, the shape of the ion is square planar since the lone pairs are found above and below the plane of the square. This is clear from the image attached.

Chalcopyrite is an ore with the composition cufes2. what is the percentage of iron in a 39.6 g sample of this ore? answer in uni
iren2701 [21]
<span>Well it depends on percentage by what, but I'll just assume that it's percentage by mass. For this, we look at the atomic masses of the elements present in the compound. Cu has an atomic mass of 63.546 amu Fe has 55.845 amu and S has 36.065 amu Since there are 2 molecules of Sulfur for each one of Cu and Fe, we'll multiply the Sulfur atomic weight by 2 to obtain 72.13 amu So we have not established the mass of the compound in amus 63.546 + 55.845 + 72.13 = 191.521 That is the atomic mass of Chalcopyrite. and Iron's atomic mass is 55.845 So to get the percentage, or fraction of iron, we take 55.845 / 191.521 Which comes out to 29.15% by mass Mass of the sample is not needed for this calculation, but since the question mentions it I would go ahead and check if the question isn't also asking for the mass of Iron in the sample as well, in which case you just find the 29.15% of 67.7g</span>
