Answer:

4.56×10^-10

Explanation:

Co(OH)2(s)<------->Co^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq)

Co^2+(aq) + 6NH3(aq) ---------->[Co(NH3)6]^2+(aq)

Overall equation:

Co(OH)2(s)+ 6NH3(aq) ---------->[Co(NH3)6]^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq)

The increased solubility of the cobalt salt in the presence of ammonia is as a result of the formation of the hexammine cobalt II complex shown above.

Knet= Ksp×Kf

Ksp of Co(OH)2= 5.92 × 10^-15.

Kf= 7.7 x 10^4

Knet= 5.92 × 10^-15 × 7.7 x 10^4

Knet= 4.56×10^-10

Note Knet is the equilibrium constant of the overall reaction.

Na+ leaks through neuron membranes faster than k+ because of the properties of the non-gated leak channels. na+ leaks through ne
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: b. False

K+ ions move faster than the Na+ ions through the neuron membranes.

The concentration of Sodium ions outside the cell is very high. The concentration of Potassium ions inside the cells is very high. Leakage channels thus allow sodium ions to move inside the cells and pumps out the Potassium from the cells.

<span>Hello!
 
The statement that best proves that the law of conservation is obeyed during this process is that </span><span>The total mass of oxygen and carbon is equal to the total mass of carbon dioxide.

The chemical equation for the combustion reaction of coal in the carbon cycle is the following one:

C(s) + O</span>₂(g) → CO₂(g)
<span>
From this simple chemical equation, we can conclude that if the Law of Conservation of Matter is obeyed in this reaction, the sum of the initial masses of Carbon and Oxygen before the reaction will be equal to the total amount of Carbon Dioxide formed by it, because they sum up to produce Carbon Dioxide.

Have a nice day!</span>

How is thermal energy apart of weather changing
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Heat, in the form of thermal energy, naturally moves from warmer substances to colder ones. When the ocean is warmer than the atmosphere, it transfers heat — through conduction and radiation — to make the air warmer. ... This redistributes thermal energy and causes changes in the weather.
