Find the pHpH of a solution prepared from 1.0 LL of a 0.15 MM solution of Ba(OH)2Ba(OH)2 and excess Zn(OH)2(s)Zn(OH)2(s). The Ks

pKsp of Zn(OH)2Zn(OH)2 is 3×10−153×10−15 and the KfKf of Zn(OH)2−4Zn(OH)42− is 2×10152×1015.

Answer:

pH  = 13.09

Explanation:

Zn(OH)2 --> Zn+2 + 2OH-   Ksp = 3X10^-15

Zn+2 + 4OH-   --> Zn(OH)4-2   Kf = 2X10^15

K = Ksp X Kf

  = 3*2*10^-15 * 10^15

  = 6

Concentration of OH⁻ = 2[Ba(OH)₂] = 2 * 0.15 = 3 M

                Zn(OH)₂ + 2OH⁻(aq)  --> Zn(OH)₄²⁻(aq)

Initial:           0             0.3                      0

Change:                      -2x                     +x

Equilibrium:               0.3 - 2x                 x

K = Zn(OH)₄²⁻/[OH⁻]²

6 = x/(0.3 - 2x)²  

6 = x/(0.3 -2x)(0.3 -2x)

6(0.09 -1.2x + 4x²) = x

0.54 - 7.2x + 24x² = x

24x² - 8.2x + 0.54 = 0

Upon solving as quadratic equation, we obtain;

x = 0.089

Therefore,

Concentration of (OH⁻) = 0.3 - 2x

                                    = 0.3 -(2*0.089)

                                  = 0.122

pOH = -log[OH⁻]

         = -log 0.122

          = 0.91

pH = 14-0.91

     = 13.09

Reasoning you used to decide if something was made of molecules.​
sasho [114]

Answer:

Whether something is a molecule or not depends on the type of bond that is formed when its atoms join together. In general, electrons can be shared between atoms (a molecular bond) or electrons can be completely removed from one atom and given to another (an ionic bond). Molecules have molecular bonds.
