Answer: Magnesium Chloride $(MgCl_2)$ is produced other than hydrogen gas in the following reaction.

Explanation:

The given reaction is a type of single displacement reaction. This reaction is defined as the reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal in a chemical reaction.

For the reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid, magnesium metal is more reactive than hydrogen, so it will easily displace hydrogen from its chemical reaction.

The equation follows:

$Mg(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow MgCl_2(aq)+H_2(g)$

By Stoichiometry,

1 mole of magnesium metal reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid to produce 1 mole of magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas.

Hence, the other product formed in the given reaction is magnesium chloride.

Calculate how many times more soluble Mg(OH)2 is in pure water Based on the given value of the Ksp, 5.61×10−11, calculate the ra

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

molar solubility in water = 2.412 * 10^-4 mol/L

molar solubility of NaOH in 0.130M = 3.32 * 10^-9 mol/L

Mg(OH)2 is a factor 0.73*10^5 more soluble in pure water than in 0.130 M NaOH

Explanation:

The Ksp refers to the partial solubilization of a mostly insoluble salt. This is an equilibrium process.

The equation for the solubilization reaction of Mg(OH)2 can be given as:

Mg(OH)2 (s) → Mg2+ (aq) + 2OH– (aq)

Ksp can then be given as followed:

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

Step 2: Calculate the solubility in water

Mg(OH)2 (s) → Mg2+ (aq) + 2OH– (aq)

The mole ratio Mg^2+ with OH- is 1:2

So there will react X of Mg^2+ and 2X of OH-

The concentration at equilibrium will be XM Mg^2+ and 2X OH-

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

5.61*10^-11 = X * (2X)² = X *4X² = 4X³

X = 2.412 * 10^-4 mol/L = solubility in water

Step 3: Calculate solubility in 0.130 M NaOH

The initial concentration of Mg^2+ = 0 M

The initial concentration of OH- = 0.130 M

The mole ratio Mg^2+ with OH- is 1:2

So there will react X of Mg^2+ and 2X +0.130 for OH-

The concentration at equilibrium will be XM Mg^2+ and 0.130 + 2X OH-

The value of "[OH–] + 2X" is, because the very small value of X, equal to the value of [OH–] .

Let's consider:

[Mg+2] = X

[OH] = 0.130

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

5.61*10^-11 = X *(0.130)²

5.61*10^-11 = X * (0.130)^2

X = 3.32*10^-9 = solubility in 0.130 M NaOH

Step 4: Calculate how many times Mg(OH)2 is better soluble in pure water.

(2.412*10^-4)/ (3.32*10^-9) = 0.73 * 10^5

Mg(OH)2 is a factor 0.73*10^5 more soluble in pure water than in 0.130 M NaOH
