CaCO₃ partially dissociates in water as Ca²⁺ and CO₃²⁻. The balanced equation is,
                       CaCO₃(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)
Initial                Y                   -                 -
Change           -X                  +X              +X
Equilibrium      Y-X                 X                X

Ksp for the CaCO₃(s) is 3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M²

                Ksp = [Ca²⁺(aq)][CO₃²⁻(aq)]
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X * X
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X²
                    X = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M

Hence the solubility of CaCO₃(s) = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M
                                                     = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L

Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 100 g mol⁻¹

Hence the solubility of CaCO₃ = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L x 100 g mol⁻¹
                                                 = 5.79 x 10⁻³ g/L

A team of scientists claim that they have discovered a new element. Which of
sasho [114]

B. Another team of scientists must be able to replicate the results of

the experiment.

Explanation:

Scientists follow due scientific processes in supporting a claim. This process is known as scientific method. A scientific method is a procedural way of investigating an observation. It entails:

  • careful observation and measurement
  • detailed experiment
  • the formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses

Through this, when a finding is made, before it can be acceptable by the scientific community, it must be tested through a series of experiments by other scientist. These scientists will also test for the validity of the claim that a new element has been discovered.

When electrolyzing copper (ll) chloride, what reaction takes place at the anode? What reaction takes place at the cathode?
klemol [59]

Answer:

Copper ions are reduced into copper atoms.

Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ →  Cu₍s₎

Explanation:

During electrolysis,  the positive H⁺ and Cu⁺ ions move to the negative cathode and negative OH⁻ and Cl⁻ ions move to the positive anode.

At cathode, copper ions are preferentially discharged due to the low electromotive force required to discharge them compared to the hydrogen ion. The copper ions gain the two electrons lost by the chloride ions when the are discharged. (2 Cl⁻₍aq₎ → Cl₂₍g₎ + 2e⁻)

Thus the half equation is as follows:

Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ →  Cu₍s₎
