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.

Lead(II) nitrate and ammonium iodide react to form lead(II) iodide and ammonium nitrate according to the reaction Pb(NO3)2(aq)+2
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

a) volume of ammonium iodide required =349 mL

b) the moles of lead iodide formed = 0.0436 mol

Explanation:

The reaction is:

Pb(NO_{3})_{2}+2NH_{4}I -->PbI_{2}+2NH_{4}NO_{3}

It shows that one mole of lead nitrate will react with two moles of ammonium iodide to give one mole of lead iodide.

Let us calculate the moles of lead nitrate taken in the solution.

Moles=molarityX volume (L)

Moles of lead nitrate = 0.360 X 0.121 =0.0436 mol

the moles of ammonium iodide required = 2 X0.0436 = 0.0872 mol

The volume of ammonium iodide required will be:

volume=\frac{moles}{molarity}=\frac{0.0872}{0.250}=0.349L=349mL

the moles of lead iodide formed = moles of lead nitrate taken = 0.0436 mol

brilliants [131]

Given the fact that we are seeing a rise in the temperature of the globe, the artic animals in that ecosystem must adapt by a reduction in the rate of metabolism.

<h3>What is global warming?</h3>

Several evidences continue to emerge that the temperature of the earth have continued to increase and this is largely due to the fact that since the turn of the twentieth century and the rise of industrialization, there have been a rise in the emission of the carbon dioxide and other green house gases into the environment. As a result of this, the temperature of the earth has continued to rise steadily leading to the melting of the ice cover and the destruction of ecosystems that are found around the artic regions of the earth.

Now, we know that an organism is able to adapt to the changes that occur in its habitat by being able to alter some of its structure and function.

Given that the organisms that live in the artic are adapted to cold regions and low temperatures, the metabolic rate of the organisms is high in order to produce heat.

As a result of the rise in global temperatures, the organisms would have to reduce their rate of metabolism.
