A geochemist in the field takes a 36.0 mL sample of water from a rock pool lined with crystals of a certain mineral compound X.

He notes the temperature of the pool, 170 C, and caps the sample carefully. Back in the lab, the geochemist first dilutes the sample with distilled water to 500. mL. Then he filters it and evaporates all the water under vacuum. Crystals of X are left behind. The researcher washes, dries and weighs the crystals. They weigh 3.96 g Using only the information above, can you calculate yes the solubility of X in water at 17.0 C? If you said yes, calculate it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol and 3 O no significant digits.

Answer:

The solubility of X in water at 17°C is 0.110 g/mL.

Explanation:

The water of a rock pool lined with mineral crystals is a <em>saturated solution</em> of said mineral, this means the concentration of X in those 36 mL is the solubility of compound X in water at 17 °C.

  • This means<u> it is possible to calculate said solubility</u>.

The dilution of the sample is not relevant, nor is that 500 mL volume. What's important is that 3.96 g of X form a saturated solution with 36.0 mL of water, so the solubility is:

  • 3.96 g / 36.0 mL = 0.110 g/mL

If the first isotope has a mass of 259.98 amu and a percent abundance of 35%, what is the percent abundance of the second isotop
brilliants [131]
If it is assumed that there are only two isotopes then the percent abundance needs to add up to 100%

100-35= 65%

The second isotope will have a 65% abundance.

Sulfur burns in the air to form 33.6L of sulfur dioxide. (S = 32, O =16, 64g of sulfur dioxide has 22.4L, 32g of oxygen has 22.4
ivolga24 [154]

The mass of oxygen reacted/required in this reaction is obtained as 48g.

<h3>What is stoichiometry?</h3>

The term stoichiometry has to do with mass- volume or mass - mole relationship which ultimately depends on the balanced reaction equation.

Now, we have the reaction; S + O2 ------>SO2

If 1 mole of sulfur dioxide contains 22.4 L

x moles of sulfur dioxide contains 33.6L

x = 1.5 moles of sulfur dioxide.

Since the reaction is 1:1, the number if moles of oxygen required/reacted is 1.5 moles.

Mass of oxygen required/reacted = 1.5 moles * 32 g/mol = 48g

Standard reduction potentials for nickel(II) and copper(II) The standard reduction potential for a substance indicates how readi
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The standard potential, E cell, for this galvanic cell is 0.5670V

Explanation:

Ni²⁺(aq)  +  2e⁻   →   Ni(s)           E red =  - 0.23V      ANODE

Cu²⁺(aq) +  2e-    →  Cu(s)          E red = + 0.337V    CATHODE

ΔE° = E cathode - E anode

ΔE° = 0.337V - (0.23V) = 0.5670 V
