D.Less dense than water. Cork has a density of 0.24g/cm³. Water has a density of about 1g/cm³. 

Another example:  Ice floats in water because the density of ice is less than the density of water( 1g/cm³). Ice has a density of 0.92 g/cm³.

If PbI2(s) is dissolved in 1.0MNaI(aq) , is the maximum possible concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution greater than, less th
fredd [130]

Answer:

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

Less than the concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution in part ( a )

Explanation:

From the question:

A)

We assume that s to be  the solubility of PbI₂.

The equation of the reaction is given as :

PbI₂(s) ⇌ Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq); Ksp = 7 × 10⁻⁹

 [Pb²⁺] =   s

Then [I⁻] = 2s

K_{sp} =\text{[Pb$^{2+}$][I$^{-}$]}^{2} = s\times (2s)^{2} =  4s^{3}\\s^{3} = \dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}\\\\s =\mathbf{ \sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}\\\\\text{The mathematical expressionthat can be used to determine the value of  }\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

B)

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in water is calculated as :

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{7*10^{-9}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s} =\sqrt[3]{1.75*10^{-9}}

\mathbf{s} =\mathbf{1.21*10^{-3}  \ mol/L }

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in 1.0 mol·L⁻¹ NaI

\mathbf{PbCl{_2}}  \leftrightharpoons    \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{Pb^{2+}}   \ \ \ \  \ +   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{2 I^-}

                             \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf0}   \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \   \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{+2x}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0+2x}

The equilibrium constant:

K_{sp} =[Pb^{2+}}][I^-]^2 \\ \\ K_{sp} = s*(1.0*2s)^2 =7*1.0^{-9} \\ \\ s = 7*10^{-9} \ \  m/L

It is now clear that maximum possible concentration of Pb²⁺ in the solution is less than that in the solution in part (A). This happens due to the  common ion effect. The added iodide ion forces the position of equilibrium to shift to the left, reducing the concentration of Pb²⁺.

Zinc metal is added to hydrochloric acid to generate hydrogen gas and is collected over a liquid whose vapor pressure is the sam
mafiozo [28]

Question:

Zinc metal is added to hydrochloric acid to generate hydrogen gas and is collected over a liquid whose vapor pressure is the same as pure water at 20.0 degrees C (18 torr). The volume of the mixture is 1.7 L and its total pressure is 0.987 atm. Determine the number of moles of hydrogen gas present in the sample.

A. 0.272 mol

B. 0.04 mol

C. 0.997 mol

D. 0.139 mol

E. 0.0681 mol

Answer:

The correct option is;

E. 0.0681 mol

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is

Zn + HCl = H₂ + ZnCl₂

Vapor pressure of the liquid = 18 torr = 2399.803 Pa

Total pressure of gas mixture H₂ + liquid vapor = 0.987 atm  

= 100007.775 Pa

Therefore, by Avogadro's law, pressure of the hydrogen gas is given by the following equation

Pressure of H₂ = 100007.775 Pa - 2399.803 Pa = 97607.972 Pa

Volume of H₂ = 1.7 L = 0.0017 m³

Temperature = 20 °C = 293.15 K

Therefore,

n = \frac{PV}{RT} =  \frac{100007.775 \times 0.0017 }{8.3145 \times 293.15} = 0.068078 \ moles

Therefore, the number of moles of hydrogen gas present in the sample is n ≈ 0.0681 moles.

How many Fe atoms are within a single FeCl2 molecule
Rama09 [41]

The number of Fe atoms within a single FeCl2 molecule are one.

Explanation:

Metallic iron produces only ferrous chloride (FeCl2) on treatment with hydrochloric acid. Hydrogen gas is also liberated as the other product. But when iron is heated with chlorine gas, ferric chloride (FeCl3) is formed.

Total number of atoms within a single FeCl2 molecule are 3 atoms.

The number of Fe atoms in FeCl2 molecule are one.

Number of Cl atoms in FeCl2 molecule are two.
