Answer:
The final balanced equation is
Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+
Explanation:
It is given that sodium hydroxide is added to collect the solid nickel(II) hydroxide product
The empirical equation for this statement is
Ni2+ + NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + Na+
We will first balance the hydroxide molecule. On the right side there are two OH molecules.
Thus, on the left side we will take 2 sodium hydroxide
Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + Na+
Now we will balance the sodium ion which are 2 in numbers on the left side and 1 on the right side
Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+
So, the final balanced equation is
Ni2+ + 2NaOH --> Ni (OH)2 + 2Na+
Isobaric transition, first law: <span>H=ΔU+w</span>
for a gas expansion: <span>w=<span>P<span>ext</span></span>∗ΔV</span>
to convert to joules, you need the gas constants.
R = 0.08206 L atm/mol*K, R=8.314 J/mol*K
<span>w=<span>P<span>ext</span></span>∗ΔV∗<span><span>8.314 J/mol∗K</span><span>0.08206 L atm/mol∗K</span></span></span>
<span>ΔU=ΔH−[<span>P<span>ext</span></span>∗ΔV∗<span><span>8.314 J/mol∗K</span><span>0.08206 L atm/mol∗K</span></span>]</span>
<span>ΔU=−75000 J−[(43.0atm)∗(2−5)L∗<span><span>8.314 J</span><span>0.08206 L atm</span></span>]</span>
Then you need to convert to kJ.
by the way U=E, internal energy.
<span>Solutes become electrolytes by ionizing. Ionic compounds therefore make good electrolytes; covalent compounds don't.</span>
