Answer:

Barium nitrate or silver nitrate based on the anion our solute contains

Explanation:

I assume the situation is that currently the solute is soluble in water and you wish to make it insoluble.

It really depends on the soluble material you have, however, let's look at some specific cases.

We have a salt in our solution. Addition of any of the three reagents will produce a double displacement reaction, that is, our cation will be replaced by another cation, either sodium, barium or silver cation.
According to the solubility rules, all sodium salts are soluble, so sodium nitrate won't precipitate our anion.
In case our solute contains sulfate, carbonate or phosphate, we may use barium nitrate to precipitate it, as barium sulfate, barium carbonate and barium phosphate are insoluble.
In case our solute contains chloride, then silver nitrate is the way to go to precipitate it in an insoluble form of AgCl. Similarly, silver would form precipitates with carbonate, phosphate, iodide, bromide and slightly soluble silver sulfate (barium is the choice for sulfate, however).

Name two compounds with more exothermic lattice energies than scandium oxide and justify your choice.

N76 [4]

Answer:

1 . $Al_2O_3$

2. $TiO_2$

Explanation:

The more stable the ionic compound, the more is it lattice energy.

The more the charge on the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.
The less the size of the cation and the anion, the greater is the lattice energy.

Scandium oxide ( $Sc_2O_3$ ) is an oxide in which $Sc^{3+}$ behaves as cation and $O^{2-}$ behaves as anion.

The compounds which has higher lattice energy than scandium oxide are:

1 . $Al_2O_3$

This is because the charge are same on the cation and the anion as in the case of the Scandium oxide but the size of the cation $Al^{3+}$ is smaller than $Sc^{3+}$ . Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.

2. $TiO_2$

This is because the charge on the cation $Ti^{4+}$ is greater than that of $Sc^{3+}$ and also the size of the cation $Ti^{4+}$ is smaller than $Sc^{3+}$ . Thus, this corresponds to higher lattice energy.

How many moles of water as a gas can be formed 2.45 L

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

0.11mole

Explanation:

Let us assume that the condition is at standard temperature and pressure(STP);

Given parameters:

Volume of water = 2.45L

Unknown:

Number of moles found in this volume of water = ?

Solution;

At STP;

Number of moles = $\frac{volume of gas}{22.4}$

Input the parameters and solve;

Number of moles of water = $\frac{2.45}{22.4}$ = 0.11mole

The number of moles of water found is 0.11mole

If a reaction taking place in a flask shows a drop in temperature, which type of reaction is it? Options: exothermic reactions e

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

exothermic reaction

Explanation:

If there is a drop in temperature, then energy was lost to the surroundings because temperature is the average measure of kinetic energy. An exothermic reaction would result in this lost of energy. An endothermic reaction would absorb energy and make the temperature rise.

The statement "electrons have a negative charge" is true. Select the correct evidence scientist have that proves this statement

Kryger [21]

The question is incomplete but i will try to offer as much help as i can.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The electron was discovered by J.J Thompson. His model of the atom was called the plum-pudding model of the atom.

He discovered that cathode rays being negatively charged particles were deflected by a magnet in just the same way as moving, negative electrically charged particles.

Similarly, in an electric field, they are deflected towards the positive plate of the electrostatic field which shows that they are negatively charged.
