You can put a known amount sodium into some sort of time release mechanism such as a pill made from soluble material.  Then you can place the sodium into a calorimeter with a known mass of water and record the temperature change the water undergoes during the reaction.  Then you can use the equation q(water)=m(water)c(water)ΔT to find the amount of heat absorbed by the water.  since the amount of heat absorbed by the water is the amount of heat released from the sodium, q(sodium)=-q(water).  Than you can use the equation q(sodium)=m(sodium)c(sodium)ΔT and solve for c(sodium)

I hope this helps and feel free to ask about anything that was unclear in the comments.

When electrons are transfered to a more electronegative molecule, what happens?
irga5000 [103]
Do u mean when electrons are transferred to the valence shell what happens to the electronegativity? The electronegativity is greater in the valence she'll because they have greater reason to pull electrons to pull towards them

A Choose... convex concave  lens is used to converge light.
asambeis [7]
Answer: A convex lens is used to converge ligtht.

Explanation:

A concave lens is a lens that is thicker on the ends than in the middle. As consequence of this, a concave lens diverges (separate) the rays of light. A concave lens is also called diverging lens.

A convex lens is is thicker in the middle than on the ends. As consequence of this, a convex lense converge the parallel rays that pass through it. A convex lens is also called converging lens.

The ksp of pbi2 is 1.4 x 10-8. what is the molar solubility of lead(ii iodide in a solution of 0.400 m sodium iodide?
tino4ka555 [31]
The solubility product of a substance us calculated by the product of the concentration of the dissociated ions in the solution raise to the stoichiometric coefficient of the ions. Therefore, we need the dissociation reaction. For this, it will have the reaction:

PbI2 = Pb^2+ + 2I-

We solve as follows:

Ksp = [Pb2+][I-]^2 = <span>1.4 x 10-8
</span><span>1.4 x 10-8 = x(2x)^2
</span><span>1.4 x 10-8 = 4x^3
x = 1.5x10^-3 M

The molar solubility would be </span>1.5x10^-3 M.
