Wastewater discharged into a stream by a sugar refinery contains 1.70 g of sucrose (C12H22O11) per liter. A government-industry

project is designed to test the feasibility of removing the sugar by reverse osmosis. What pressure must be applied to the apparatus at 20.°C to produce pure water?

Answer:

A pressure value more than 0.012 atm must be applied to the apparatus at 20.0°C to produce pure water.

Explanation:

When pressure more than the value of osmotic pressure of the solution is applied to the solution then water will move out from the solution which is termed as reverse osmosis.

Given that 1.70 grams of sucrose was present in 1 L of solution.

Moles of sucrose present in 1 liter of solution  = \frac{1.70 g}{342 g/mol}=0.004971 mol/L

C = 0.004971 mol/L

Temperature of the solution = T = 20.0°C = 20.0+273 K = 293 K

Osmotic pressure of soluion = \Pi

\Pi=CRT

\Pi=0.004971 mol/L\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 293 K=0.012 atm

A pressure value more than 0.012 atm must be applied to the apparatus at 20.0°C to produce pure water.

Solid sodium iodide is slowly added to a solution that is 0.0050 M Pb 2+ and 0.0050 M Ag +. [K sp (PbI 2) = 1.4 × 10 –8; K sp (A
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

[Ag⁺] = 5.0x10⁻¹⁴M

Explanation:

The product solubility constant, Ksp, of the insoluble salts PbI₂ and AgI is defined as follows:

Ksp(PbI₂) = [Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

Ksp(AgI) = [Ag⁺] [I⁻] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

The PbI₂ <em>just begin to precipitate when the product  [Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸</em>

<em />

As the initial [Pb²⁺] = 0.0050M:

[Pb²⁺] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

[0.0050] [I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸

[I⁻]² = 1.4x10⁻⁸ / 0.0050

[I⁻]² = 2.8x10⁻⁶

<h3>[I⁻] = 1.67x10⁻³</h3><h3 />

So, as the [I⁻] concentration is also in the expression of Ksp of AgI and you know concentration in solution of I⁻ = 1.67x10⁻³M:

[Ag⁺] [I⁻] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

[Ag⁺] [1.67x10⁻³] = 8.3x10⁻¹⁷

<h3>[Ag⁺] = 5.0x10⁻¹⁴M</h3>

Why is the net charge of a neutral atom zero?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The positive (protons) and negative (electrons) charges balance each other in a neutral atom, which has a net zero charge. Because protons and neutrons each have a mass of 1, the mass of an atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons of that atom.

Why does it generally take more enthalpy to ignite a solid than a gas or liquid?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

It is due to the nature of the reactants

Explanation:

To ignite a solid, we require more heat component compared to liquids and gases. For ignition to occur, oxygen gas combines with a reactant in most cases.

Some factors affect the rate rate at which a chemical proceeds. One of the factors is the nature of reactants.

The solid phase is very slow while the gaseous phase is rapid and fast.

            solid phase < liquid phase <  gas phase

Gases are free and the molecules move in all direction. They easily combine and react very fast.
