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

In a chemical compound, would you expect an oxide ion to be joined with one atom of calcium or one atom of potassium? Why?
Soloha48 [4]

I know what you're asking but I don't think the question is stated properly. Technically, an atom will not join with an "oxide" ion; i.e., the oxide ion is an atom of oxygen to which two electrons have been added. An oxide ion will add to 2 K ions or 1 Ca ion. The K ion has lost just one electron so it takes two of them to equal the 2- charge on the oxide ion whereas the Ca ion has lost two electrons and it takes only one of them to equal the charge on the oxide ion.

Consider the reversible reaction, A+B⇌C+D. If the concentration of product D is increased, the rate of the reverse reaction woul
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

If the concentration of product D is increased, the rate of the reverse reaction would increase.

Explanation:

Chemical reaction:

A + B ⇄ C + D

In given condition the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of product.

When the concentration of product D is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when the product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state the reaction will proceed backward direction to regain the equilibrium state.

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature
