A solution contains 3.1 mM Zn(NO3)2 and 4.2 mM Ca(NO3)2. The p-function for Zn2+ is _____, and the p-function for NO3- is _____.
seropon [69]

<u>Answer:</u> The p-function of Zn^{2+} and NO_3^{-} ions are 2.51 and 2.14 respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

p-function is defined as the negative logarithm of any concentration.

We are given:

Millimolar concentration of zinc nitrate = 3.1 mM

Millimolar concentration of calcium nitrate = 4.2 mM

Converting this into molar concentration, we use the conversion factor:

1 M = 1000 mM

  • Concentration of zinc nitrate = 0.0031 M = 0.0031 mol/L

1 mole of zinc nitrate produces 1 mole of zinc ions and 2 moles of nitrate ions

Concentration of zinc ions = 0.0031 M

Concentration of nitrate ions in zinc nitrate, M_1=(2\times 0.0031)=0.0062M

  • Concentration of calcium nitrate = 0.0042 M = 0.0042 mol/L

1 mole of calcium nitrate produces 1 mole of calcium ions and 2 moles of nitrate ions

Concentration of calcium ions = 0.0042 M

Concentration of nitrate ions in calcium nitrate, M_2=(2\times 0.0042)=0.0084M

To calculate the concentration of nitrate ions in the solution, we use the equation:

M=\frac{M_1V_1+M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

M=\frac{(0.0062\times 1)+(0.0084\times 1)}{1+1}\\\\M=0.0073M

Calculating the p-function of zinc ions and nitrate ions in the solution:

  • <u>For zinc ions:</u>

\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=-\log[Zn^{2+}]

\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=-\log(0.0031)\\\\\text{p-function of }Zn^{2+}\text{ ions}=2.51

  • <u>For nitrate ions:</u>

\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=-\log[NO_3^{-}]

\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=-\log(0.0073)\\\\\text{p-function of }NO_3^{-}\text{ ions}=2.14

Hence, the p-function of Zn^{2+} and NO_3^{-} ions are 2.51 and 2.14 respectively.

Verizon [17]
The answer should be hydrogen bonding. Water only has oxygen and hydrogen in it, which are both nonmetals, so you know the answer cannot be metallic or ionic. It also cannot be nonpolar because the electronegativity of the oxygens will make the molecule polar. You can also know it is hydrogen bonding because it can only take place when a hydrogen is attached to an oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen. These bonds are very strong attractions, so the molecules are extremely hard to pull apart, creating a high boiling point. Hope that helps!

PLEASE HELP ASAP
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: Each ion, or atom, has a particular mass; similarly, each mole of a given pure substance also has a definite mass. The mass of one mole of atoms of a pure element in grams is equivalent to the atomic mass of that element in atomic mass units (amu) or in grams per mole (g/mol).
