Answer:

The ratio by number of H atoms to O atoms is: 4:5

Explanation:

The mineral torbernite, : Cu(UO_2)_2(PO_4)2⋅8H_2O

Number of oxygen atoms in the mineral :

=2\times 2+4\times 2+8\times 1=20

Number of hydrogen atoms in the mineral :

=8\times 2=16

The ratio by number of H atoms to O atoms is:

\frac{16}{20}=\frac{4}{5}=4:5

H:O = 4:5; (UO₂)₂ = 4 O atoms; (PO₄)₂ = 8 O atoms: 8H₂O = 16 H atoms + 8 O atoms; Total = 16 H atoms + 20 O atoms; H:O = 16:20 = 4:5

A solution contains 3.1 mM Zn(NO3)2 and 4.2 mM Ca(NO3)2. The p-function for Zn2+ is _____, and the p-function for NO3- is _____.
seropon [69]

<u>Answer:</u> The p-function of Zn^{2+} and NO_3^{-} ions are 2.51 and 2.14 respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

p-function is defined as the negative logarithm of any concentration.

We are given:

Millimolar concentration of zinc nitrate = 3.1 mM

Millimolar concentration of calcium nitrate = 4.2 mM

Converting this into molar concentration, we use the conversion factor:

1 M = 1000 mM

  • Concentration of zinc nitrate = 0.0031 M = 0.0031 mol/L

1 mole of zinc nitrate produces 1 mole of zinc ions and 2 moles of nitrate ions

Concentration of zinc ions = 0.0031 M

Concentration of nitrate ions in zinc nitrate, M_1=(2\times 0.0031)=0.0062M

  • Concentration of calcium nitrate = 0.0042 M = 0.0042 mol/L

1 mole of calcium nitrate produces 1 mole of calcium ions and 2 moles of nitrate ions

Concentration of calcium ions = 0.0042 M

Concentration of nitrate ions in calcium nitrate, M_2=(2\times 0.0042)=0.0084M

To calculate the concentration of nitrate ions in the solution, we use the equation:

M=\frac{M_1V_1+M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

M=\frac{(0.0062\times 1)+(0.0084\times 1)}{1+1}\\\\M=0.0073M

Calculating the p-function of zinc ions and nitrate ions in the solution:

  • <u>For zinc ions:</u>

\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=-\log[Zn^{2+}]

\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=-\log(0.0031)\\\\\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=2.51

  • <u>For nitrate ions:</u>

\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=-\log[NO_3^{-}]

\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=-\log(0.0073)\\\\\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=2.14

Hence, the p-function of Zn^{2+} and NO_3^{-} ions are 2.51 and 2.14 respectively.

Which two layers are part of the thermosphere?
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

exosphere and ionosphere.

Explanation:

very high up,the earth's atmosphere becomes very thin. the region where atoms and moleculesescape into space is referred to as the exosphere. exosphere is on top of the thermosphere.

scientists what is called the ionospherean extension of the thermosphere. so technically, ionosphere is not another atmospheric layer.
