You have a vial that may contain lead(II) cations or barium cations, but not both. Available to you are solutions of ammonium su

lfate, sodium fluoride and potassium bromide. Which single solution can you add to the vial to determine which cation is present?

Answer:

We should add, the KBr solution.

Explanation:

The vial contains Ba²⁺  and Pb²⁺

Our solutions are: (NH₄)₂ SO₄, NaF and KBr

We dissociate the solutions:

(NH₄)₂ SO₄  → 2NH₄⁺ + SO₄⁻²

NaF → Na⁺ + F⁻

KBr → K⁺ + Br-

When we add ammonium sulfate and sodium fluorine, we are adding sulfates and fluorines, but these two anions make precipitate both cations, we can not determine, if the vial contains Ba²⁺ or Pb²⁺

SO₄⁻²(aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) → BaSO₄ (s)  ↓

SO₄⁻² (aq)+ Pb²⁺(aq)  → PbSO₄ (s)  ↓

2F⁻ (aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) → BaF₂ (s) ↓

2F⁻ (aq) + Pb²⁺ (aq) → PbF₂ (s)  ↓

When we add the KBr, bromides only make precipitate with Pb²⁺, so the vial has only Pb²⁺ cation:

2Br⁻ (aq) + Ba²⁺ (aq) → BaBr₂ (aq)

2Br⁻ (aq) + Pb²⁺ (aq) → PbBr₂ (s) ↓

kipiarov [429]
Answer:
            -195.8 °C  =  77.35 K  =  -320.44 °F 

Explanation:

Temperature is commonly measured in following three scales;

1) Kelvin

2) Fahrenheit<span> 

3) </span>Celsius<span> 

Other scales are Rankine, Romer, Newton, Delisle e.t.c

Temperature given is -195.8 </span>°C. Degree Celsius is related to Kelvin and Fahrenheit as follow,

Celcius to Kelvin;
 
                          K  =  °C + 273.15
So,
                          K  =  -195.8 + 273.15

                          K  =  77.35 

Celcius to Fahrenheit;

                         
°F  =  °C × 9/5 + 32
So,
                         °F  =  -195.8 × 9/5 + 32

                         °F  =  -320.44

What does it mean for the energy levels in an atom to be quantized? Describe how this affects where electrons can be found
marta [7]
When we describe the energy of a particle as quantized, we mean that only certain values of energy are allowed. ... In this case, whenever we measure the particle's energy, we will find one of those values. If the particle is measured to have 4 Joules of energy, we also know how much energy the particle can gain or lose. Quantized energy means that the electrons can possess only certain discrete energy values; values between those quantized values are not permitted
