A 350 mL saturated solution of magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2 is prepared at 25 degrees Celsius. The solubility product constant,

Ksp, for Mg(OH)2 is 1.8 x 10^-11 at 25 degrees Celsius.
1) Find the molar solubility of Mg(OH)2 at 25 degrees Celsius?

2) What is the concentration (mol/L) of hydroxide ion, OH-, in the saturated solution at 25 degrees Celsius?

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The solubility of magnesium hydroxide at 25°C is 1.65\times 10^{-4}M

<u>For 2:</u> The concentration of hydroxide ion in the saturated solution at 25°C is 3.3\times 10^{-4}M

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For 1:</u>

The equation for the ionization of the magnesium hydroxide is given as:

             Mg(OH)_2\leftrightharpoons Mg^{2+}+2OH^-

                                    s            2s

Expression for the solubility product of Mg(OH)_2 will be:

K_{sp}=[Mg^{2+}][OH^-]^2\\\\K_{sp}=s\times (2s)^2=4s^3

We are given:

K_{sp}=1.8\times 10^{-11}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.8\times 10^{-11}=4s^3\\\\s=1.65\times 10^{-4}M

Hence, the solubility of magnesium hydroxide at 25°C is 1.65\times 10^{-4}M

  • <u>For 2:</u>

Concentration of hydroxide ion in the solution = 2s = (2\times 1.65\times 10^{-4})=3.3\times 10^{-4}M

Hence, the concentration of hydroxide ion in the saturated solution at 25°C is 3.3\times 10^{-4}M

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3

Which reaction represents the process of neutralization? Mg(s)+2HCl(aq) MgCl 2 (aq)+H 2 (g) HCl(aq)+KOH(aq) KCl(aq)+H 2 O(l) C.
Alex

Answer:

HCl(aq) + KOH(aq) --> KCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is the process between an acid and a base (there are a number of different ways to define acids and bases). An acid is a compound, which dissolves in water by releasing H+ ions, and a base is a compound, which dissolves in water by releasing OH- ions (by Arrhenius' definition, the simplest one). In this case, the neutralization reaction is the process between HCl (hydrochloric acid) - an acid, and KOH (potassium hydroxide) - a base.
