The ksp of beryllium hydroxide, be(oh)2, is 6.92 × 10-22. calculate the molar solubility of this compound.

1 answer:

5 0

When Be(OH)₂ dissolves it dissociates into the following ions
Be(OH)₂ --> Be²⁺ + 2OH⁻
molar solubility is the number of moles that dissolve in 1 L of solution
If the molar solubility of Be(OH)₂ is 'x', molar solubility of Be²⁺ and OH⁻ ions are x and 2x respectively.
ksp is solubility constant for Be(OH)₂
ksp = [Be²⁺][OH⁻]²
6.92 * 10⁻²² = [x][2x]²
4x³ = 6.92 * 10⁻²²
x³ = 1.73 * 10⁻²²
x = 5.57 * 10⁻⁸ mol/L
molar solubility of Be(OH)₂ is 5.57 * 10⁻⁸ mol/L

Carbon-14 has a half-life of approximately 5700 years. How much of a 1000g sample will be left undecayed and still radioactive a

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

option C is correct (250 g)

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of carbon-14 = 5700 years

Total amount of sample = 1000 g

Sample left after 11,400 years = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of half lives passes during 11,400 years.

Number of half lives = time elapsed/ half life

Number of half lives = 11,400 years/5700 years

Number of half lives = 2

Now we will calculate the amount left.

At time zero = 1000 g

At first half life = 1000 g/2 = 500 g

At second half life = 500 g/2 = 250 g

Thus, option C is correct.

Both 1,2−dihydronaphthalene and 1,4−dihydronaphthalene may be selectively hydrogenated to 1,2,3,4−tetrahydronaphthalene. One of

pochemuha

Answer:

1,4-dihydro = 113 kJ·mol⁻¹

1,2-dihydro = 101 kJ·mol⁻¹

Explanation:

In 1,4-dihydronaphthalene, the 2,3-double bond is isolated from the benzene ring.

In 1,2-dihydronaphthalene, the 3,4-double bond is conjugated with the benzene ring.

Thus, 1,2-dihydronaphthalene is partially stabilized by resonance interactions between the ring and the double bond (think, styrene).

1,2-Dihydronaphthalene is at a lower energy level because of this stabilization.

The heat of hydrogenation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene is therefore less than that of the 1,4-isomer when each is hydrogenated to the common product, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene.
