When we have:
Zn(OH)2 → Zn2+ 2OH- with Ksp = 3 x 10 ^-16
and:
Zn2+ + 4OH- → Zn(OH)4 2- with Kf = 2 x 10^15
by mixing those equations together:
Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2- with K = Kf *Ksp = 3 x 10^-16 * 2x10^15 =0.6
by using ICE table:
Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2-
initial 2m 0
change -2X +X
Equ 2-2X X
when we assume that the solubility is X
and when K = [Zn(OH)4 2-] / [OH-]^2
0.6 = X / (2-2X)^2 by solving this equation for X
∴ X = 0.53 m
∴ the solubility of Zn(OH)2 = 0.53 M
Answer:
mitochondria,
Explanation:
Cellular respiration occurs inside cells; specifically, cellular respiration happens inside the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell. Cellular respiration is a critical function by which cells release energy for various cellular activities like locomotion, biosynthesis, and even the transportation of molecules between membranes.
