Potassium thiocyanate, KSCN, is often used to detect the presence of Fe3+ ions in solution through the formation of the red Fe(H

2O)5SCN2+ (or, more simply, FeSCN2+). What is [Fe3+] when 0.700 L each of 0.00150 M Fe(NO3)3 and 0.200 M KSCN are mixed? Kf of FeSCN2+ = 8.9 × 102. Enter your answer in scientific notation. Report your final answer to two significant figures.

Answer:

Ferric ions left in the solution at equilibrium is 8.0\times 10^{-6} M.

Explanation:

Moles of ferric nitrate in 0.700 L = n

Volume of the solution = V = 0.700 L

Molarity of ferric nitrate = M = 0.00150 M

n=M\times V=0.00150 M\times 0.700 L=0.00105 mol

Moles of potassium thiocyanate in 0.700 L = n'

Volume of the potassium thiocyanate solution = V' = 0.700 L

Molarity of potassium thiocyanate = M' = 0.200 M

n'=M'\times V'=0.200 M\times 0.700 L=0.140 mol

Molarity of ferric ions after mixing :

1 mol of ferric nitrate gives 1 mol of ferric ions.Then 0.00105 mol ferric nitrate will :

Moles of ferric ions = 0.00105 mol

M_1=\frac{0.00105 mol}{0.700 L+0.700 L}=0.00075 M

Molarity of  thiocyanate ions after mixing :

1 mol of potassium thiocyanate gives 1 mol of thiocyanate ions.Then 0.140 mol potassium thiocyanate will give:

Moles of thiocyanate ions = 0.140 mol

M_2=\frac{0.140 mol}{0.700 L+0.700 L}=0.1 M

Complex equation:

          Fe^{3+}+SCN^-\rightleftharpoons [Fe(SCN)]^{2+}

0.00075 M         0.1 M                        0

At equilibrium:

(0.00075 M -x)    (0.1 M-x)                  x

The formation constant of the given complex =K_f=8.9\times 10^2

K_f=\frac{[[Fe(SCN)]^{2+}]}{[[Fe^{3+}]][SCN^{-}]}

8.9\times 10^2=\frac{x}{(0.00075 M -x)\times (0.1 M-x)}

Solving for x:

x = 0.000742 M

Ferric ions left in the solution at equilibrium :

= (0.00075 M -x) = (0.00075 M - 0.000742 M)= 8.0\times 10^{-6} M

The pressure on a 200 milliliter sample of CO2 (g) at constant temperature is increased from
balu736 [363]

The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.

  • <u><em>Therefore the final volume of the gas is 100 ml.</em></u>

Explanation:

 Given:

Initial pressure (P_{1}) = 600 mm of Hg

Final pressure (P_{2}) = 1200 mm of Hg

Initial volume (V_{1}) = 200 ml      

To find:

Final volume (V_{2})

We know;

According to the ideal gas equation,

    P × V = n × R × T

Where;

P represents the pressure of the gas

V represents the volume of the gas

n represents the no of moles of the gas

R represents the universal gas constant

T represents the temperature of the gas

So,

 From the above mentioned equation,

        P × V = constant

\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } = \frac{V_{1} }{V_{2} }

Where,

(P_{1}) represents the initial pressure of the gas

(P_{2}) represents the final pressure of the gas

(V_{1})  represents the initial volume of the gas

(V_{2})  represents the final volume of the gas

So;

\frac{600}{1200} = \frac{V_{2} }{200}    

V_{2} = 100 ml

<u><em>Therefore the final volume of the gas is 100 ml.</em></u>

What is the pH of a 2.0 x 10^-4 M solution of nitric acid (HNO3)
Semmy [17]

Hello!

datos:

Molarity = 2.0*10^{-4}\:M\:(mol/L)


ps: The ionization constant of the nitric acid is strong (100% ionized in water) or completely dissociates in water, so the pH will be:

pH = - log\:[H_3O^+]

pH = - log\:[2*10^{-4}]

pH = 4 - log\:2

pH = 4 - 0.30

\boxed{\boxed{pH = 3.70}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Note:. The pH <7, then we have an acidic solution.

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR!
