In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance. What is the total resistance?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

17 ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

In a series circuit there are 17 light bulbs, each providing 1 ohm of resistance.

We need to find the total resistance of the circuit.

The equivalent resistance for series combination is given by :

R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+....

For 17 light bulbs, the equivalent resistance is given by :

R_{eq}=R+R+....\text{upto 17 terms}\\\\R_{eq}=17R\\\\=17

Hence, the total resistance is 17 ohms. Hence, the correct option is (d).

What are the equilibrium concentrations of pb2+ and f– in a saturated solution of lead(ii) fluoride if the ksp of pbf2 is 3.20×1
erica [24]
Answer is:  the equilibrium concentrations fluorine anion are 0.004 M and lead cation are 0.002 M.<span>
Chemical reaction: PbF</span>₂(aq) → Pb²⁺(aq) + 2F⁻(aq).<span>
Ksp = 3,2·10</span>⁻⁸.
[Pb²⁺] = x.
[F⁻] = 2[Pb²⁺] = 2x<span>
Ksp = [Pb²</span>⁺] · [F⁻]².
Ksp = x · 4x².
3,2·10⁻⁸ = 4x³.
x = ∛3,2·10⁻⁸ ÷ 4.
x = [Pb²⁺] = 0,002M = 2·10⁻³ M.
[F⁻] = 2 · 0,002M = 0,004 M = 4·10⁻³ M.
