Particles of Substance X are dispersed in water to form a colloid. Which describes the electrical charges on the particles of Su

bstance X?
All the particles carry the same charge, which could be either positive or negative.

Each particle carries a charge that is slightly different from the other particles.

Half of the particles carry a positive charge; the other half carry a negative charge.

All the particles are uncharged, or electrically neutral.

The correct answer is option A.

All the particles carry the same charge, which could be either positive or negative.

All the particles of substance X will have same charge on its surface, which is balanced by the oppositely charged ions in the water.

For example, soap solution (sodium palmitate) dissociates into ions:

C₁₅H₁₁COONa --> C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻ + Na⁺

The cations (Na⁺) passes into the water while the anions (C₁₅H₁₁COO⁻) form aggregates or colloids.

0.05 grams od cobalt ii oxalate will dissolve in one liter of solution at 25 degree celcius. Calculate the ksp for cobalt ii oxa
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The equilibrium expression is:

CoC2O4(s)⇌Co2+(aq)+C2O2−4(aq)

For this reaction:

Ksp = [Co2+][C2O2−4]=1.96×10−8

Explanation:

Batteries will not clot if cobalt ions are removed from its cells. Some blood collection tubes contain salts of the oxalate ion,

C2O2−4

, for this purpose. At sufficiently high concentrations, the calcium

and oxalate ions form solid, CoC2O4·H2O (which also contains water bound in the solid). The concentration of Co2+ in a sample of blood serum is 2.2 × 10–3M. What concentration of

C2O2−4

ion must be established before CoC2O4·H2O begins to precipitate.

CoC2O4 does not appear in this expression because it is a solid. Water does not appear because it is the solvent.

Solid CoC2O4 does not begin to form until Q equals Ksp. Because we know Ksp and [Co2+], we can solve for the concentration of

C2O2−4

that is necessary to produce the first trace of solid:

How many liters of a 0.5 m sodium hydroxide solution would contain 2 moles of solute?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

  • 4 liters

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) M = 0.5 M

<u>Note</u>: since the question is about volume (liters) and moles of solute, the correct unit for the concentration of the hydroxide solution is M (upper case) which is the unit for molarity. Lower case m is used for molality, and you cannot calculate the volume of the solution unless you know some other data, e.g. density of the solution.

b) n = 2

c) V (in liters) = ?

<u>2) Formula:</u>

Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution:

  • M = n / V (in liters)

<u>3) Solution:</u>

a) Clear V from the formula: V (in liters) = M / n

b) Substitute: V (in liters) =  2 moles /  0.5M  = 4 liters ← answer

How will an ecysosyem's population be impacted if humans clear out all of the trees?
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Without trees formerly forested areas would become drier and more prone to extreme droughts. When and if rain did come flooding would be disastrous and massive erosion would impact oceans smothering coral reefs and other marine habitats

How many grams of sodium sulfide are formed if 1.80 g of hydrogen sulfide is bubbled into a solution containing 2.40 g of sodium
Nookie1986 [14]

The reaction of sodium sulfide with hydrogen sulfide can be shown as

H_2S + 2 NaOH = Na_2S + 2 H_2O \\ Molar mass of H_2S = 34 g /mol\\ Mole of H_2S  = mass /molar mass\\  = 1.8 /34 = 0.051 mole\\ Mole of NaOH  = 2 * 0.051 = 0.102 mole\\ Theoritical mole of NaOH = mass /molar mass\\ = 2.4 /40 = 0.06 mole

Sodium hydroxide is completely reacting and thus act as limiting reactant

Hence, mole of Na_2S required  = 0.06 /2 = 0.03 mole\\ Mass of Na_2S = 0.03 * 78 = 2.31 g

Thus, 2.31 g Na2S produced.
