Silicon must have 4 single covalent bond, every single bond has 2 electrons (one pair), so 4·2=8 electrons (octet).

Solid calcium hydroxide is dissolved in water until the pH of the solution is 10.44. Determine the concentration of the calcium
Orlov [11]

Answer:

1.38x10⁻⁴ M

Explanation:

First, we <u>calculate the pOH of the solution</u>, using the <em>given pH</em>:

  • pOH = 14 - pH
  • pOH = 14 - 10.44
  • pOH = 3.56

Now we <u>calculate the concentration of OH⁻</u>, using<em> the pOH</em>:

  • pOH = -log[OH⁻]
  • [OH⁻] = 10^{-pOH} = 2.75x10⁻⁴ M

Following the reaction Ca(OH)₂ → Ca⁺² + 2OH⁻, we divide [OH⁻] by 2 to calculate [Ca(OH)₂]:

  • [Ca(OH)₂] = 2.75x10⁻⁴ M / 2
  • [Ca(OH)₂] = 1.38x10⁻⁴ M

Consider the following reaction:
Kitty [74]

Answer : The value of equilibrium constant (Kc) is, 0.0154

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

                        SO_2Cl_2(g)\rightarrow SO_2(g)+Cl_2(g)

Initial conc.    2.4\times 10^{-2}          0             0

At eqm.          (2.4\times 10^{-2}-x)   x              x

As we are given:

Concentration of Cl_2 at equilibrium = 1.3\times 10^{-2}M

That means,

x=1.3\times 10^{-2}M

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_c=\frac{[SO_2][Cl_2]}{[SO_2Cl_2]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{2.4\times 10^{-2}-x}

K_c=\frac{(1.3\times 10^{-2})\times (1.3\times 10^{-2})}{2.4\times 10^{-2}-1.3\times 10^{-2}}

K_c=0.0154

Thus, the value of equilibrium constant (Kc) is, 0.0154

What are some signs of cyanide poisoning visible on a corpse?
lina2011 [118]
Hello!
I saw this question and instantly knew I could help. I recently took a course on toxic gasses and poisons. Here's what I know.

It can be swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. It is generally released from its host compound by acids, such as the hydrochloric acid found in the stomach. The poison in the seeds is released only if the seeds are chewed.

Effects and symptoms:
Cyanide prevents the red blood cells from absorbing oxygen. It's called chemical asphyxia.
Smelling of a toxic dose of the gas can cause immediate unconsciousness, convulsions and death within one to fifteen minutes.
If swallowed a fatal dose can take up to twenty minutes or longer, esp. if swallowed on a full stomach.
If a near-lethal dose is absorbed through the skin, inhaled or swallowed the symptoms will include gasping for breath, dizziness, flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting, rapid pulse, and a drop in blood pressure causing fainting.
<span>With a lethal dose, convulsions with in four hours, except in the case of sodium nitroprusside, when death can be delayed as long as 12 hours after ingestion. </span>The victims blood may appear purple or cherry red, as in carbon monoxide poisoning, and the corpse may have pinker than normal skin.
<span>the famous bitter almond odor can be a clue and maybe noticeable at autopsy, but not everyone is capable of smelling it.

Hope this helped! :)</span>

Select the name of the element with a condensed ground-state electron configuration of [kr] 5s14d7.
Vilka [71]

elements have equal number of protons and neutrons

the condensed format is when the closest noble gas with the closest electron configuration is given, this closest noble gas atomic number should be lesser than the atoms atomic number

atomic number of Kr is 36

1 electron in 5s subshell and 7 electrons in 4d subshell.

there's a total of 36 + 1 + 7 = 44 electrons

atomic number of the atom is 44

element with atomic number 44 is Ruthenium - Ru

answer is Ru
