Answer: SOLID WATER(ICE) IS LESS DENSE THAN LIQUID WATER

Explanation:Water molecules are bonded together by Hydrogen bonds, Hydrogen bonds are intermolecular forces binding the molecules of Oxygen with that of Hydrogen. When in an ICE state,the solid form of water will float on the liquid form of water, because the orientation of Hydrogen bonds pushes or makes the Ice molecules to stay far apart from each making it less Dense than liquid water.

Answer:

3.50*10^-11 mol3 dm-9

Explanation:

A silver rod and a SHE are dipped into a saturated aqueous solution of silver oxalate, Ag2C2O4, at 25°C. The measured potential difference between the rod and the SHE is 0.5812 V, the rod being positive. Calculate the solubility product constant for silver oxalate.

Ag2C2O4 -->  2Ag+  +  C2O4 2-

So Ksp = [Ag+]^2 * [C2O42-]

In 1 L, 2.06*10^-4 mol of silver oxalate dissolve, giving, the same number of mol of oxalate ions, and twice the number of mol (4.12*10^-4) of silver ions.

So Ksp = (4.12*10^-4)^2 * (2.06*10^-4)

= 3.50*10^-11 mol3 dm-9
