What is the net ionic equation for 2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 6NaOH

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

Explanation:

First of all, let us balance the equation to give;

2Sb(OH)3 (s) + 3Na2S (aq) = Sb2S3 + 3NaOH

Now, we can observe the presence of positive Sodium ions (Na+) and negative hydroxyl ions (OH-) on both left and right sides of the equation.

Now, the two ions will cancel out. These ions are not really involved in the overall reaction and thus do not require being written in the overall equation. Hence, the overall net ionic reaction can now be written as:

2Sb^(+3) (aq) + 3S^(-2) (aq) = Sb_2•S_3

HEEELP! :)

A substance can dissolve in another when they have thee same type of intermolecular interaction.

<h3>What is solubility?</h3>

The term solubility of a solute refers to the extent to which a solute dissolve in a solvent. We must know that a substance can dissolve in another when they have thee same type of intermolecular interaction.

Thus;

a) Octane (C8H18) mixes well with CCl4 because they are both non polar substances.

b) Methanol (CH3OH) is mixed with water in all ratios because the both are polar substances.

c) NaBr dissolves very poorly in acetone (CH3 ― CO ― CH3) because acetone is only slightly polar.

What are the Lewis definitions of an acid and a base? In what way are Bronsted definitions? they more general than the In terms

kati45 [8]

Explanation:

Lewis definition of Acids and Bases

Chemical species which are capable of accepting electron pairs or donating protons are called Lewis acid.

Chemical species which are capable of donating electron pairs or accepting protons are called Lewis base.

Bronsted definition of acids and bases

Chemical species which are capable of donating H+ are called Bronsted acids.

Chemical species which are capable of accepting H+ are called Bronsted bases.

So all Bronsted acids are Lewis acids but all Lewis acids are not Bronsted acids.

For a chemical species to behave as Lewis acid, they must have:

Incomplete octet
Double bond
Vacant d-orbitals

For example, in BF3, octet of boron is incomplete, so it can accept a pair of electron and behaves as Lewis acid.

For a chemical species to behave as Lewis base, they must have:

lone pair of electrons

For example, NH3 and OH, both N and O have lone pairs of electrons, hence behave as Lewis base.

A frictionless piston cylinder device is subjected to 1.013 bar external pressure. The piston mass is 200 kg, it has an area of

Bad White [126]

Answer:

a) $T_{2} = 360.955\,K$ , $P_{2} = 138569.171\,Pa\,(1.386\,bar)$ , b) $T_{2} = 347.348\,K$ , $V_{2} = 0.14\,m^{3}$

Explanation:

a) The ideal gas is experimenting an isocoric process and the following relationship is used:

$\frac{T_{1}}{P_{1}} = \frac{T_{2}}{P_{2}}$

Final temperature is cleared from this expression:

$Q = n\cdot \bar c_{v}\cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})$

$T_{2} = T_{1} + \frac{Q}{n\cdot \bar c_{v}}$

The number of moles of the ideal gas is:

$n = \frac{P_{1}\cdot V_{1}}{R_{u}\cdot T_{1}}$

$n = \frac{\left(101,325\,Pa + \frac{(200\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}{0.15\,m^{2}} \right)\cdot (0.12\,m^{3})}{(8.314\,\frac{Pa\cdot m^{3}}{mol\cdot K} )\cdot (298\,K)}$

$n = 5.541\,mol$

The final temperature is:

$T_{2} = 298\,K +\frac{10,500\,J}{(5.541\,mol)\cdot (30.1\,\frac{J}{mol\cdot K} )}$

$T_{2} = 360.955\,K$

The final pressure is:

$P_{2} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}\cdot P_{1}$

$P_{2} = \frac{360.955\,K}{298\,K}\cdot \left(101,325\,Pa + \frac{(200\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )}{0.15\,m^{2}}\right)$

$P_{2} = 138569.171\,Pa\,(1.386\,bar)$

b) The ideal gas is experimenting an isobaric process and the following relationship is used:

$\frac{T_{1}}{V_{1}} = \frac{T_{2}}{V_{2}}$

Final temperature is cleared from this expression:

$Q = n\cdot \bar c_{p}\cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})$

$T_{2} = T_{1} + \frac{Q}{n\cdot \bar c_{p}}$

$T_{2} = 298\,K +\frac{10,500\,J}{(5.541\,mol)\cdot (38.4\,\frac{J}{mol\cdot K} )}$

$T_{2} = 347.348\,K$

The final volume is:

$V_{2} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}\cdot V_{1}$

$V_{2} = \frac{347.348\,K}{298\,K}\cdot (0.12\,m^{3})$

$V_{2} = 0.14\,m^{3}$

Which reaction is a decomposition reaction? A. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2 B. 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O C. ZnS + 3O2 → 2ZnO + 2SO2 D. 2NaBr + CaF

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Option A. 2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

Decomposition reactions

Synthesis or combination reaction

Single replacement reactions

Double replacement reactions

Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

ZnS + 3 O₂ → 2ZnO + 2SO₂ is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ is a double replacement reaction because two ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).
