PbS partially dissociates into ions as Pb²⁺ and S²⁻ in water. The balanced reaction is
           PbS(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)
In the saturated solution, the reaction is at equilibrium. 
Let's assume that solubility of PbS in saturated solution is "X".
Then according to the stoichiometry,  
solubility of PbS = equilibrium concentration of Pb²⁺(aq) = equilibrium concentration of S²⁻(aq) = X

            Ksp = [Pb²⁺(aq) ][S²⁻(aq)]
            Ksp = X * X  
 3.0 × 10⁻²⁸ = X²
              X   = 1.7 x 10⁻¹⁴ M.

Hence the concentration of lead(ii) ions in a saturated solution of PbS is 1.7 x 10⁻¹⁴ M.

Determine the mass of 5.2 x 10 power of 21 molecules of propanol C3H7OH(l), on grams.
Alja [10]

n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) = N(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) / N_A\\ \phantom{n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH})} = 5.2 \times 10^{21} / (6.02 \times 10^{23})\\ \phantom{n(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH})} = 8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol}

where N_A = 6.02 \times 10^{23}\; \text{mol}^{-1} the Avogadro's constant that relates the number of particles to their number, in the unit moles \text{mol}.

The molar mass of propanol- mass per mole propanol- can be directly deduced from its molecular formula with reference to a modern periodic table.

M(\text{C}_3\text{H}_7\text{OH}) = \underbrace{3 \times 12.01}_{\text{carbon}} + \underbrace{8 \times 1.008}_{\text{hydrogen}} + \underbrace{1\times 16.00}_{\text{oxygen}} = 60.09 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1}

8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol} of propanol molecules would thus have a mass of 8.6 \times 10^{-3} \; \text{mol} \times 60.09 \; \text{g} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1} = 0.52 \; \text{g}

What is the word eletrovent
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrovalent is a word often associated with chemical bonding in the field of chemistry. It is special type of bond that occurs between metals and non-metals.

These bond types are interatomic interactions occurring between two atoms to ensure that they attain stable configurations.

  • This bond type is also known as ionic bonds.
  • It occurs between two species with a large electronegative diffference i.e one specie is electropositive and the other highly electronegative.
  • The more electropositive specie is metal and it readily loses its valence electrons.
  • The electronegative non-metal gains the electrons and becomes negatively charged.
  • The electrostatic attraction between the metal and non-metals yields the electrovalent bonds.

How are a sodium atom and a sodium ion alike?
grigory [225]
They are not allike as na atom has 11 elctrons and Na ion has 10 electons. <span>They both have the same nucleus (same number of protons and neutrons). The only difference is that the ion has one less electron than the atom (in this case).</span>

Given the following list of atomic and ionic species, find the appropriate match for questions 2-4. Please Explain.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

2. (C) K⁺; 3. (E) Hg⁺; 4. Hg⁺

Explanation:

We must first write the electron configurations of the different species.

(A) Fe²⁺

Fe:     [Ar]4s²3d⁶

Fe²⁺: [Ar]3d⁶

When removing electrons from a transition metal ion, you remove the s electrons first.

(B) Cl

Cl: [Ne]3s²3p⁵

(C) K⁺

K:   [Ar]4s

K⁺: [Ar]

(D) Cs

Cs: [Xe]6s

(E) Hg⁺

Hg:   [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

Hg⁺: [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰

2. K⁺ has a noble gas configuration

3. Hg⁺ has electrons in f orbitals.

4. The electron configuration of Au is [Xe]6s4f¹⁴5d¹⁰, not [Xe]6s²4f¹⁴5d⁹, because a filled d subshell is more stable than a filled s subshell.

Thus, Hg⁺ is isoelectronic with Au.
