<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

An electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with
Lilit [14]

An electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 valence electrons

<h3>What is an atom?</h3>

An atom can be defined as the smallest part of an element which can take part in a chemical reaction.

However whenever, an electron is added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 different valence electrons

So therefore; an electron can be added to halogen atom to force a halide ion with 8 valence electrons

Which of the following statements is not true regarding acids? (3 points)
horsena [70]

Answer:

Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.

Explanation:

What is said in the statement corresponds to a Lewis base, not an acid. For example, NH3 is a Lewis base, since it is capable of donating its pair of electrons. Trimethylborane (Me3B) is a Lewis acid, since it is capable of accepting a solitary pair.
