Answer:

$578.2\times 10^{-6}$

Explanation:

Scientific notation is the way of writing numbers which are either large or small. The number is written in the scientific notation when the number is between 1 and 10 and then multiplied by the power of 10. Engineering notation is the same version of the scientific notation but the number can be between 1 and 1000 and in this exponent of the ten is divisible by three.

For example, $1000^2$ is to be written as $10^6$ in engineering notation.

The given number:

0.00057824 can be written as $578.24\times 10^{-6}$

Answer upto 4 significant digits = $578.2\times 10^{-6}$

Identify a type of strong intermolecular force that exists between water molecules, but does not exist between carbon dioxide mo

timurjin [86]

Intermolecular forces of attraction hold the molecules together. These forces determine the physical properties of substances like melting and boiling points. There are five types of intermolecular forces: Hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole interactions, ionic interactions, ion-dipole interactions and dispersion forces.

Hydrogen bonding is a stronger force of attraction between hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom (F, N, and O). So, water molecules exhibit hydrogen bonding.

In carbon dioxide molecules, although each C=O is polar the molecule as a whole will be non polar due to symmetry. Therefore, the only intermolecular forces in CO2 will be dispersion forces.

Hence, Hydrogen bonding exists between water molecules but not carbon dioxide molecules.

Answer: Equilibrium concentration of $[Cl^-]$ at $50^0C$ is 4.538 M

Explanation:

Initial concentration of $CoCl_2$ = 0.056 M

Initial concentration of $Cl^-$ = 4.60 M

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$COCl_2+2Cl^-\rightleftharpoons [CoCl_4]^{2-}+6H_2O$

Initial conc. 0.056 M 4.60 M 0 M 0 M

At eqm. conc. (0.056-x) M (4.60-2x) M (x) M (6x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

$K_c=\frac{[CoCl_4]^{2-}\times [H_2O]^6}{[CoCl_2]^2\times [Cl^-]^2}$

Given : equilibrium concentration of $[CoCl_4]^{2-}$ =x = 0.031 M

Concentration of $Cl^-$ = (4.60-2x) M = $(4.60-2\times 0.031)$ =4.538 M

Thus equilibrium concentration of $[Cl^-]$ at $50^0C$ is 4.538 M
