⦁ Find the concentration of H+, OH-, PH and POH of 0.03 M of magnesium hydroxide which ionizes to the extent of only 1 /3 in aqu
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

pH=12.3\\\\pOH=1.7\\

[H^+]=5x10^{-13}M

[OH^-]=0.02M

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given ionization of magnesium hydroxide, it is possible for us to set up the following reaction:

Mg(OH)_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Mg^{2+}(aq)+2OH^-(aq)

Thus, since the ionization occurs at an extent of 1/3, we can set  up the following relationship:

\frac{1}{3} =\frac{x}{[Mg(OH)_2]}

Thus, x for this problem is:

x=\frac{[Mg(OH)_2]}{3}=\frac{0.03M}{3}\\\\x=  0.01M

Now, according to an ICE table, we have that:

[OH^-]=2x=2*0.01M=0.02M

Therefore, we can calculate the H^+, pH and pOH now:

[H^+]=\frac{1x10^{-14}}{0.02}=5x10^{-13}M

pH=-log(5x10^{-13})=12.3\\\\pOH=14-pH=14-12.3=1.7

Best regards!

Balance the chemical equation.Au plus HC l plus HNO 3 right arrow AuC l Subscript 3 Baseline plus NO plus Upper H 2 Upper OAu+HC
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Au+ 3HCl + HNO_3 \to AuCl_3+NO+2H_2O

Explanation:

Chemical Equations are representations of chemical reactions in terms of the symbols and formulae of the elements and compounds involved. A chemical equation usually have the reactant at the left hand side while the product is on the right hand side.

A chemical Equation is of little or no value if is not in balanced equation. When an equation is balanced , the total number of atoms of any element on the left-hand side of it must be equal to the total number of atoms of that element on the right hand side.

in the given question; we are given a word problem of chemical symbol to  compute and also to balance the chemical equation.

From below; the chemical equation can be written as:

Au+ HCl + HNO_3 \to AuCl_3+NO+2H_2O

From the above  equation we will notice  that  it is not truly balanced ; so th balanced equation can be written as:

Au+ 3HCl + HNO_3 \to AuCl_3+NO+2H_2O

Differentiate between the three types of simple permanent tissues on the basis of their cell walls​
True [87]

Answer:

Parenchyma is the most simple and specialized tissue which is concerned mainly with the vegetative activities of the plant. The cells are isodiametric with well-developed intercellular spaces, vacuolated cytoplasm and cellulosic cell wall.

Collenchyma is the tissue of the primary body. The cells of the tissue contain protoplasm and are living without intercellular spaces. The cell wall articulate at the corners and are made up of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin.

Sclerenchyma is the thick-walled cell tissue. In the beginning, the cell is living and have protoplasm, but due to deposition of impermeable secondary board lignin, they become dead thick and hard.
