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

Write down examples of some natural acids and natural bases. Also write use of them.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Formic acid, citric acid, Oxalic acid, washing soda, baking soda, etc. can be some examples of natural acids and natural bases. They both have domestic, industrial, and various other purposes.

Explanation:

<h3><u>NATURAL ACIDS</u>:</h3>

There are lots of natural acids present in our nature. Some of them are the following:

> <u>Formic acid</u>

 USE: It is used in the stimulation of oil and gas wells as it is less reactive towards the metal.

> <u>Citric acid</u>

 USE: It is considered as the best rust remover as it doesn't harm the metal just remove the rust.

> <u>Oxalic acid</u>

USE: It easily remove iron and ink stains and that's why it is used as an acid rinsing material in Laundries.

<h3><u>NATURAL BASES</u>:</h3>

There is a variety of natural base found in our nature which founds a lot of uses in day to day life. some of them are the following:

> <u>Washing soda</u>

USE: It is used in commercial detergent mixture to treat hard water.

> <u>Baking soda</u>

USE: It is the best rising agent used mostly in cooking and for domestic purposes like removing stains, etc..

How does a physical change differ from a chemical change
inysia [295]

With a physical change you can actually see it change like ice turning into water, then with a chemical change you can't see it change, although within the molecules themselves they change which makes that possible.


Hope this helps!
