Answer: Matter is the thing which occupied space and volume.

Explanation: In chemistry or in general life, we define matter as the susbtance which occupied space and make volume for itself. Thus everything on the eart occupied some kind of space thus they all are applicable to fall under the category of Matter.

There are various kinds of forces which hold together the matter depending on the type of susbtances. Like sodium chloride crystal lattice has ionic bonding between the ions whereas carbon skeleton has covalent bonding, water flowing in the river have hydrogen bonding.

These matter are made up of protons, atoms, electrons, neutrons, molecules etc.

The solubility of magnesium phosphate at a given temperature is 0.173 g/L. Calculate the Ksp at this temperature. After you calc

jek_recluse [69]

Answer: $K_{sp}=1.25\times 10^{-14}$

$pK_{sp}=13.90$

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as $K_{sp}$

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

$Mg_3(PO_4)_2\rightarrow 3Mg^{2+}+2PO_4^{3-}$

When the solubility of $Mg_3(PO_4)_2$ is S moles/liter, then the solubility of $Mg^{2+}$ will be 3S moles\liter and solubility of $PO_4^{3-}$ will be 2S moles/liter.

Thus S = 0.173 g/L or $\frac{0.173g/L}{262.8g/mol}=0.00065mol/L$

$K_{sp}=(3S)^3\times (2S)^2$

$K_{sp}=108S^5$

$K_{sp}=108\times (0.00065)^5=1.25\times 10^{-14}$

$pK_{sp}=-log(K_{sp})=\log (1.25\times 10^{-14})=13.90$

What is he empirical formula for the compound that is of 1.85 moles of nitrogen and 4.63 miles of oxygen

BartSMP [9]

The empirical formula is N₂O₅.

The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.

The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles, so our job is to calculate the molar ratio of N:O.

I like to summarize the calculations in a table.

Element Moles Ratio¹ ×2² Integers³

N 1.85 1 2 2

O 4.63 2.503 5.005 5

¹To get the molar ratio, you divide each number of moles by the smallest number (1.85).

²Multiply these values by a number (2) that makes the numbers in the ratio close to integers.

³Round off the number in the ratio to integers (2 and 5).

The empirical formula is N₂O₅.

When dipentyl ether is treated with HI, what type of reaction occurs? both SN1 and SN2 SN2 E1 SN1 E2

masha68 [24]

Answer:

SN2

Explanation:

The first step of ether cleavage is the protonation of the ether since ROH is a better leaving group than RO-.

The second step of the reaction may proceed by either SN1 or SN2 mechanism depending on the structure of the ether. Methyl and primary ethers react with HI by SN2 mechanism while tertiary ethers react with HI by SN1 mechanism. Secondary ethers react with HI by a mixture of both mechanisms.

Dipentyl ether is a primary ether hence when treated with HI, the reaction with HI proceeds by SN2 mechanism as explained above.
