When we have:

Zn(OH)2 → Zn2+ 2OH-  with Ksp = 3 x 10 ^-16

and:

Zn2+ + 4OH- → Zn(OH)4 2-  with Kf = 2 x 10^15
 
by mixing those equations together:

Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2- with K = Kf *Ksp = 3 x 10^-16 * 2x10^15 =0.6

by using ICE table:

         Zn(OH)2 + 2OH- → Zn(OH)4 2-

initial                     2m              0

change                  -2X                +X     

Equ                       2-2X                 X

when we assume that the solubility is X

and when K = [Zn(OH)4 2-] / [OH-]^2

        0.6 = X / (2-2X)^2    by solving this equation for X

∴ X = 0.53 m

∴ the solubility of Zn(OH)2 = 0.53 M

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Functional groups.

Explanation:

Functional groups are the specific substituents present within the molecules which are responsible for characteristic chemical properties the molecule shows.

Glucose contains alcohol and aldehyde group while hexanoic acid contains carboxylic acid group. <u>The presence different types of the functional groups in both the compounds results in the difference in the properties of both the compounds.</u>

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 480-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 22C to 234C? The specifi
NemiM [27]
The given formula for heat, Q=mc(Tf-Ti), is the best way to solve such problems with changes in temperature. It can be said that m is the mass of the substance. C is the specific heat of the substance. The term (Tf-Ti) is the change in temperature.

Q = mc(Tf-Ti) = 480g(0.96 J/g-C)(234-22) = 97689.6 Joules of heat

What was one main point of Dalton's atomic theory?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

C. That atoms made up the smallest form of matter

Explanation:

The crux of the Dalton's atomic theory is that atoms are the smallest form of matter. He propositioned that atoms is an indivisible particle and beyond an atom, no form of matter exists.

Series of discoveries through time have greatly shaped the Dalton's atomic theory. The discovery of cathode rays by J.J Thomson in 1897 opened up the atom. Atoms were now seen to be made up of some negatively charged particles. Ernest Rutherford through his gold foil experiment proposed the nuclear model of the atom.

Given that the density of iron is 7.9 g/cm3, what would be the volume of a 15.8 g piece of iron
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

2cm^3

Explanation:

Use the density triangle: D=MxV

Switch for variables, V=M/D

Plug in numbers, 15.8g/7.9g/cm^3=2cm^3

Write the two balanced equations, one for the incomplete combustion of methane (to form carbon monoxide and water vapor), and an
kompoz [17]

Answer:

2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\

Explanation:

2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\

The incomplete combustion of alkanes, and other fuels actually, happens when there is a limited supply of oxygen. Instead of the fuel burning completely to produce carbon dioxide, it produces carbon monoxide instead.

This gas is harmful to jumans because it combines with haemoglobin in lood and takes up space that belongs to oxygen which can lead to suffocation or even death
