Kepler's third law shows the relationship between the orbital period of an object and the distance between the object and the object it orbits.

The simplified version of this law is: P^2 = a^3

Where,

P = period of the orbit in years = 0.62 years

a = average distance from the object to the object it orbits in AU. The astronomical unit AU is a unit of length which is roughly equivalent to the distance from Earth to the Sun.

Therefore calculating for a:

0.62 ^ 2 = a ^ 3

a = 0.62 ^ (2/3)

a = 0.727 AU = 0.72 AU

Therefore we can interpret this as: The distance from Venus to the Sun is about 72% of the distance from Earth to Sun.

The solubility of KCl is 3.7 M at 20 °C. Two beakers each contain 100. mL of saturated KCl solution: 100. mL of 4.0 M HCl is add
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

a)The Ksp was found to be equal to 13.69

Explanation:

Terminology

Qsp of a dissolving ionic solid — is the solubility product of the concentration of ions in solution.

Ksp however, is the solubility product of the concentration of ions in solution at EQUILIBRIUM with the dissolving ionic solid.

Note that if Qsp > Ksp , the solid at a certain temperature, will precipitate and form solid. That means the equilibrium will shift to the left in order to attain or reach equilibrium (Ksp).

Step-by-step solution:

To solve this: 

#./ Substitute the molar solubility of KCl as given into the ion-product equation to find the Ksp of KCl.

#./ Find the total concentration of ionic chloride in each beaker after the addition of HCl. We pay attention to the amount moles present at the beginning and the moles added.

#./ Find the Qsp value to to know if Ksp is exceeded. If Qsp < Ksp, nothing will precipitate.

a) The equation of solubility equilibrium for KCL is thus;

KCL_(s) ---> K+(aq) + Cl- (aq)

The solubility of KCl given is 3.7 M.

Ksp= [K+][Cl-] = (3.7)(3.7) =13.69

The Ksp was found to be equal to 14.

In pure water KCl

Ksp =13.69 KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let x= molar solubility [K+],/[Cl-] :. × , x

Ksp =13.69 = [K+][Cl-] = (x)(x) = x²

x= √ 13.69 = 3.7 M moles of KCl requires to make 100mL saturated solutio

37M moles/L

The Ksp was found to be equal to 14.

4.0 M HCl = KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let y= molar solubility :. y, y+4

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (y)(y*+4)

* - rule of thumb

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (y)(y*+4)= y(4)

13.69=4y:. y= 3.42 moles/100mL

y= 34.2moles/L

8 M HCl = KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let b= molar solubility :. B, b+8

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (b)(b*+8)

* - rule of thumb

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (b)(b*+8)= b(8)

13.69=8b:. b= 1.71 moles/100mL

17.1 moles/L

Therefore in a solution with a common ion, the solubility of the compound reduces dramatically.

What is a nonpolar bond?
serious [3.7K]
A bond between 2 nonmetal atoms that have the same electronegativity and therefore have equal sharing of the bonding electron pairExample: In H-H each H atom has an electronegativity value of 2.1, therefore the covalent bond between them is considered nonpolar. Nonpolar covalent bonds, with equal sharing of the bond electrons, arise when the electronegativities of the two atoms are equal.
