Ca(OH)2 (s) precipitates when a 1.0 g sample of CaC2(s) is added to 1.0 L of distilled water at room temperature. If a 0.064 g s

ample of CaC2 (s) (molar mass 64 g/mol) is used instead and all of it reacts, which of the following will occur and why? (the value of Ksp for Ca(OH)2 is 8.0 x 10-8)(A) Ca(OH)2 will precipitate because Q >K sp.(B) Ca(OH)2will precipitate because Q K sp.(D) Ca(OH)2 will not precipitate because Q

Answer:

Ca(OH)2 will not precipitate because Q<Ksp

Explanation:

Ksp for Ca(OH)2 has already been stated in the question as 8.0 x 10-8mol2dm-6

The value of the reaction quotient depends heavily on the concentration of the reactants. As the initial concentration of the calcium carbide decreases considerably, the reaction quotient decreases until Q<Ksp hence the Ca(OH)2 will not precipitate from solution.

The reaction equation is:

CaC₂(s) + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂ + C₂H₂

From

Ca(OH)2= Ca2+ + 2OH-

Concentration of solution= 0.064×1/64= 1×10-3

Since [Ca2+] = 1×10-3

[OH-]= (2×10-3)^2= 4×10^-6

Hence Q= 4×10^-9

This is less than the Ksp hence the answer.

Noble gas compounds like KrF, XeCl, and XeBr are used in excimer lasers. Draw an approximate molecular orbital diagram appropria
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

The MO diagrams of KrBr, XeCl, and XeBr are shown below.

They are similar, except for the numbering of the valence shell orbitals.

Also, I have drawn the s and p orbitals at the same energy levels for both atoms in the compounds. That is obviously not the case.

However, the MO diagrams are approximately correct.

The ground state electron configuration of KrF is

(1\sigma_{g})^{2}\, (1\sigma_{u}^{*})^{2} \, (2\sigma_{g})^{2} \, (2\sigma_{u}^{*})^{2} \, (3\sigma_{g})^{2} \,  (1\pi_{u})^{4} \, (1\pi_{g}^{*})^{4} \, (3\sigma_{g}^{*})^{1}

KrF⁺ will have one less electron than KrF.

You remove the antibonding electron from the highest energy orbital, so the bond order increases.

The KrF bond will be stronger.

Air moves when the molecules are free meaning they aren't close up to each other or trying to fill up space, they are moving freely.
