4.22g
1. Work out the equation and balance
2AgNo3 +BaCl2 ---> 2AgCl + Ba(No3)2

2. Work out formula mass of silver nitrate (should = 169.9)

3. Calculate the number of moles by doing moles = mass / formula mass so 5 divided by 169.9 = 0.0294 moles.

4. Check ratio - here the ratio is 2:2 i.e. 2 moles of silver nitrate to 2 moles of silver chloride so the moles will be the same so the moles of silver chloride is also 0.0294

5. Work out the formula mass of AgCl (always ignore big numbers at the start when working out formula mass) = 143.4

6. Work out mass by doing equation moles = mass/formula mass so
mass = moles x formula mass
mass = 0.0294 x 143.4
mass = 4.22g (3sf or 2dp)

What is a physical intensive property?

Len [333]

An intensive property is a property that does not change depending on how much mass of it you are considered. An example of an intensive property is density. No matter how much water you examine, the density of the sample will be 1g/cm³.

The term El Nino/Southern Oscillation refers to the occurrence of warmer than normal sea surface temperatures in the Eastern Pac

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The El Nino/Southern Oscillation occurs in between the three phases Neutral, La Nina or El Nino.

The humboldt current takes cold water to South America's west coast to the tropics from the Southern Ocean. Because of the welling which takes place in Peru this process is enhanced. Due to the trade winds near the equator the cold water travels west where it heats up due to the sun. This makes the water of the western Pacific warmer.

Solid NaBr is slowly added to a solution that is 0.073 M in Cu+ and 0.073 M in Ag+.Which compound will begin to precipitate firs

saul85 [17]

Answer :

AgBr should precipitate first.

The concentration of $Ag^+$ when CuBr just begins to precipitate is, $1.34\times 10^{-6}M$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains is, 0.0018 %

Explanation :

$K_{sp}$ for CuBr is $4.2\times 10^{-8}$

$K_{sp}$ for AgBr is $7.7\times 10^{-13}$

As we know that these two salts would both dissociate in the same way. So, we can say that as the Ksp value of AgBr has a smaller than CuBr then AgBr should precipitate first.

Now we have to calculate the concentration of bromide ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$CuBr\rightleftharpoons Cu^++Br^-$
