Hey there!:

To get to the molar solubility from the Ksp, you have to think about the how Ksp is calculated, and what it means.  

For a compound that forms 2 ions, Ksp = X^2 where X is the molar solubility. For a compound that forms 3 ions, Ksp = 4X^3, where again, X is the molar solubility.  

If you calculate the molar solubilities of each of your compounds, you will see that  A2X  has the higher molar solubilty

Hope this helps!

Answer:

A₃X

Explanation:

In order to find the molar solubility (S) of a compound, we will use an ICE Chart.

A₂X

Let's consider the solution of A₂X.

     A₂X(s) ⇄ 2 A⁺(aq) + X²⁻(aq)

I                         0           0

C                     +2S        +S

E                       2S          S

The solubility product (Kps) is:

Kps = 1.5 × 10⁻⁵ = [A⁺]².[X²⁻] = (2S)².S = 4S³

S = 0.016 M

A₃X

Let's consider the solution of A₃X.

     A₃X ⇄ 3 A⁺(aq) + X³⁻(aq)

I                    0             0

C                 +3S         +S

E                   3S           S

The solubility product (Kps) is:

Kps = 1.5 × 10⁻⁵ = [A⁺]³.[X³⁻] = (3S)³.S = 27 S⁴

S = 0.027 M

A₃X has a higher molar solubility than A₂X.

2L of hydrogen has an initial pressure of 750 mmHg, what is the final pressure in mmHg if the volume increases to 20 L with a co
Verdich [7]

Answer: The final pressure is 75 mm Hg.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature the pressure of a gas in inversely proportional to volume.

Since, it is given that the temperature is constant. Hence, formula used is as follows.

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}\\750 mm Hg \times 2 L = P_{2} \times 20 L\\P_{2} = \frac{750 mm Hg \times 2 L}{20 L}\\= 75 mm Hg

Thus, we can conclude that the final pressure is 75 mm Hg.

How many grams of oxygen gas are required to produce 65.75 grams of steam?
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The mass of oxygen gas required to produce 65.75 grams of steam is approximately 162.2 grams

Explanation:

From the question, we have the following chemical reaction equation;

2C₃H₁₈(l) + 25O₂ (g) → 16CO₂(g) + 18H₂O (g)

The molar mass of oxygen, O₂ = 32 g/mol

The molar mass of steam, H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

25 moles of oxygen are required to produce 18 moles of steam

Therefore, according to  Proust's law of definite proportions;

(32 × 25) g of oxygen are required to produce (18 × 18.01528) g of steam

65.75 g of steam will be produced by (32 × 25)/(18 × 18.01528) × 65.75 g ≈ 162.2 g of oxygen O₂.

Look at the electron-dot diagram. What type of bond would two sulfur atoms require to form a molecule?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Double Covalent

Explanation:

When two of the same element combine it will always be a covalent bond between them and since sulfur has two lone electrons it will make a double bond between the two to have a full octect
