Answer:

n = 1.89 mol.

Explanation:

Think of this as adiabatic free expansion. This means constant temperature -- we know this because the internal energy does not change.

Since the temperature is constant, the entropy change can be given by:

Entropy = nRln(V2/V1)

Entropy = 17.28 J/K. R = 8.314 (gas constant). V2 = 3V. V1 = V.

Thus, we get:

17.28 = n(8.314)ln3

Solve for n. We get n = 1.89 mol.

why is whenever one raised to the power of any exponent 1 and why is 0 raised to the power of any exponent 1
IceJOKER [234]
When you use exponents, think of it like this. 1 squared is 1 x 1. 1 cubed is 1 x 1 x 1. And 1 to the power of 4 is 1 x 1 x 1 x 1. And so on. You basically just multiply them by themselves. 0 to the power of any exponent is 1, well that's just a rule. It doesn't make much sense but it's easy to remember and I wouldn't worry about it.

1.50μm2. Convert this to square meters.
mars1129 [50]
Based on the standards of units conversion, to convert from micrometer to meter, we multiply by 10^-6.
Since we there is a square (10^2) to consider, then to convert from micrometer squared to meter squared, we will multiply by (10^-6)^2 as follows:
1.5 <span>μm2 = 1.5 x (10^-6)^2 = 1.5 x 10^-12 meter sqaures</span>

a solution is made by dissolving cadmium fluoride (CdF2 Ksp =6.44×10 −3 ) in 100.0 mL of water until excess solid is present. So
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Answers are in the explanation

Explanation:

Ksp of CdF₂ is:

CdF₂(s) ⇄ Cd²⁺(aq) + 2F⁻(aq)

Ksp = 6.44x10⁻³ = [Cd²⁺] [F⁻]²

When an excess of solid is present, the solution is saturated, the molarity of Cd²⁺ is X and F⁻ 2X:

6.44x10⁻³ = [X] [2X]²

6.44x10⁻³ = 4X³

X = 0.1172M

<h3>[F⁻] = 0.2344M</h3><h3 />

Ksp of LiF is:

LiF(s) ⇄ Li⁺(aq) + F⁻(aq)

Ksp = 1.84x10⁻³ = [Li⁺] [F⁻]

When an excess of solid is present, the solution is saturated, the molarity of Li⁺ and F⁻ is XX:

1.84x10⁻³ = [X] [X]

1.84x10⁻³ = X²

X = 0.0429

<h3>[F⁻] = 0.0429M</h3><h3 /><h3>The solution of CdF₂ has the higher fluoride ion concentration</h3>
