Answer: the more effective is using three 0.5-mL extractions with ether

Explanation:

Using 1.5 ml of ether

Q = [Vaq/(K×Vorg +Vaq)]^n

Q= remaining fraction

Vaq= volume of aqueous phase

Vorg= volume of organic phase

K= distribution coefficient

Using 1.5 ml ether once

Vaq= 1ml, K= 10, n=1

Q = [Vaq/(K×Vorg +Vaq)]^n

Q= [1/10×1.5+1)]^1 = 0.0625

Using 0.5ml ether 3 times

Q = [1/(10×0.5 +1)]^3= 0.0046

Hence using 0.5ml of ether 3 times is more effective

Why do you think the atomic number is basically represented by the number of protons and not the number of electrons?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The atomic number equals the charge on the nucleus. It therefore also equals the number of protons in the nucleus and also equals numerically the number of electrons in the neutral atom. i think so, hope this helps you

Hydrogen sulfide decomposes according to the following reaction: 2H2S(g) ⇋ 2H2(g) + S2(g) Kc=9.30x10-8 at 700.°C.If 0.45 mol of
Natalija [7]

Answer:

[H₂] = 1.61x10⁻³ M

Explanation:

2H₂S(g) ⇋ 2H₂(g) + S₂(g)

Kc = 9.30x10⁻⁸ = \frac{[H_{2}]^2[S_{2}]}{[H_{2}S]^2}

First we <u>calculate the initial concentration</u>:

0.45 molH₂S / 3.0L = 0.15 M

The concentrations at equilibrium would be:

[H₂S] = 0.15 - 2x

[H₂] = 2x

[S₂] = x

We <u>put the data in the Kc expression and solve for x</u>:

\frac{(2x^2) * x}{(0.15-2x)^2}=9.30x10^{-8}

\frac{4x^3}{0.0225-4x^2}=9.30*10^{-8}

We make a simplification because x<<< 0.0225:

\frac{4x^3}{0.0225} =9.30*10^{-8}

x = 8.058x10⁻⁴

[H₂] = 2*x = 1.61x10⁻³ M
