Explanation:

The atomic theory is that all matter is made up of tiny units or particles called atoms. This theory describes the characteristics, structure and behavior of atoms as well as the components that make up atoms. Furthermore, the theory states that all elements are made up of identical atoms.

The atomic theory is a theory in the study of chemistry that states atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom. Electrons, which have a negative charge, orbit the nucleus.

According to the atomic theory, all elements contain atoms. The difference is the number of protons, electrons and neutrons in that atom. For instance, hydrogen contains one proton and one electron but no neutrons. Oxygen, on the other hand contains eight protons, electrons and neutrons. The difference in protons, electrons and neutrons determines the stability and the other properties of any particular element. These elements are grouped according to their atomic masses, which depend on the number of protons and neutrons in each of the atoms. Because oxygen has more protons and neutrons than hydrogen, it has a higher atomic mass.

Solid sodium iodide is slowly added to a solution that is 0.0050 M Pb 2+ and 0.0050 M Ag +. [K sp (PbI 2) = 1.4 × 10 –8; K sp (A
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

[Ag⁺] = 5.0x10⁻¹⁴M

Explanation:

The product solubility constant, Ksp, of the insoluble salts PbI₂ and AgI is defined as follows:

Ksp(PbI₂) = [Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

Ksp(AgI) = [Ag⁺] [I⁻] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

The PbI₂ <em>just begin to precipitate when the product  [Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸</em>

<em />

As the initial [Pb²⁺] = 0.0050M:

[Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

[0.0050] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

[I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸ / 0.0050

[I⁻]² = 2.8x10⁻⁶

<h3>[I⁻] = 1.67x10⁻³</h3><h3 />

So, as the [I⁻] concentration is also in the expression of Ksp of AgI and you know concentration in solution of I⁻ = 1.67x10⁻³M:

[Ag⁺] [I⁻] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

[Ag⁺] [1.67x10⁻³] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

<h3>[Ag⁺] = 5.0x10⁻¹⁴M</h3>

Help! I need help on how to do these problems.
svetlana [45]

Answer:

a. 3; b. 5; c. 10; d. 12

Explanation:

pH is defined as the negative log of the hydronium concentration:

pH = -log[H₃O⁺] (hydronium concentration)

For problems a. and b., HCl and HNO₃ are strong acids. This means that all of the HCl and HNO₃ would ionize, producing hydronium (H₃O⁺) and the conjugate bases Cl⁻ and NO₃⁻ respectively. Further, since all of the strong acid ionizes, 1 x 10⁻³ M H₃O⁺ would be produced for a., and 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M H₃O⁺ for b. Plugging in your calculator -log[1 x 10⁻³] and -log[1.0 x 10⁻⁵] would equal 3 and 5, respectively.

For problems c. and d. we are given a strong base rather than acid. In this case, we can calculate the pOH:

pOH = -log[OH⁻] (hydroxide concentration)

Strong bases similarly ionize to completion, producing [OH⁻] in the process; 1 x 10⁻⁴ M OH⁻ will be produced for c., and 1.0 x 10⁻² M OH⁻ produced for d. Taking the negative log of the hydroxide concentrations would yield a pOH of 4 for c. and a pOH of 2 for d.

Finally, to find the pH of c. and d., we can take the pOH and subtract it from 14, giving us 10 for c. and 12 for d.

(Subtracting from 14 is assuming we are at 25°C; 14, the sum of pH and pOH, changes at different temperatures.)
