Answer:
Hence, 15.99 g of solid Aluminum Sulfate should be added in 250 mL of Volumetric flask.
Explanation:
To make 0.187 M of Aluminum Sulfate solution in a 250 mL (0.250 L) Volumetric flask
The molar mass of Aluminum Sulfate = 342.15 g/mol
Using the molarity formula:-
Molarity = Number of moles/Volume of solution in a liter
Number of moles = Given weight/ molar mass
Molarity = (Given weight/ molar mass)/Volume of solution in liter
0.187 M = (Given weight/342.15 g/mol)/0.250 L
Given weight = 15.99 g
The number of bacteria is given by:
N(t) = N(o) x 2ⁿ
Where N(t) is the number after n hours have passed and N(o) is the original number which is 15.
The number grown in the 12th hour is the difference in the number after the 11th and the 12th hour. Thus:
15 x 2¹² - 15 x 2¹¹
= 30,720 bacteria
HCl(aq) + KOH(s) --> KCl(aq) + H2O(l)
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.
Iodine has an electronegativity of 2.5, and potassium has an electronegativity of 0.8, so the difference is:
2.5 - 0.8 = 1.7
