Suppose 231.8 mgmg of PbCl2PbCl2 was added to 15.0 mLmL of water in a flask, and the solution was allowed to reach equilibrium a

t 20.0 oCoC. Some solute remained at the bottom of the flask after equilibrium, and the solution was filtered to collect the remaining PbCl2PbCl2, which had a mass of 74 mgmg . What is the solubility of PbCl2PbCl2 (in g/Lg/L)?

Answer:

ksp = 2.2 x ⁻⁴

Explanation:

The equilibrium here is:

PbCl₂ (s)     ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2 Cl⁻

we can recognize it as a product solubilty equilibrium once we are told that some undissolved PbCl₂ remained.

The equilibrium constant, Ksp is given by the equation

Ksp = [Pb²⁺][Cl⁻]²

where [Pb²⁺] and [Cl⁻]² are the concentrations (M) of Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ in solution.

we have the mass of solid PbCl₂ placed in solution, so we can determine the number of moles it represents, and if  we  substract the moles of undissolved PbCl₂ we will know the moles of Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ which went into solution.

From there we can calculate the molarity (M= moles/L solution) and finally plug the values into our expression for Ksp to answer this question.

molar mas PbCl₂ = 278.1 g/mol

1 milligram = 1 x 10⁻³ g

mol PbCl₂ initially = 231.8 x 10⁻³ g / 278.1 mol = 8.3 x 10⁻⁴ mol

Volume solution = 15 mL x 1L / 1000 mL = 0.015 L

mol undissolved PbCl₂ = 74 x 10⁻³ g / 278.1 g/mol = 2.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol

mol PbCl dissolved =   8.3 x 10⁻⁴ mol -  2.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol = 5.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol

Concentration of Pb²⁺ in solution = 5.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol / 0.015 L = 3.8 x 10⁻² M

Concentration of Cl⁻ in solution = 2 x 3.8 x 10⁻² M = 7.6 x 10⁻² M

(Note from the formula we we get 2 mol Cl⁻ per mol PbCl₂)

Plugging these values into the expression for Ksp we have

Ksp = 3.8 x 10⁻² x (7.6 x 10⁻²)² = 2.2 x 10⁻⁴

Two liquids – one polar, one nonpolar – have the same molar mass. which one has the higher boiling point?
Anton [14]
Polar will always have the higher boiling point because they have strong van der waal forces

Use chemical formulas to write the equation for the reaction between carbon and oxygen
Mandarinka [93]
C=Carbon
O=Oxygen
Oxygen is a diatomic molecule, so the subscript two needs to be used after the O in the formula.
C+O2->CO2
Hope this helps!

To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

  • <em>To balance a chemical equation it may be necessary to adjust the </em><u>coefficients.</u>

Explanation:

The <em>coefficients</em> of a <em>chemical equation</em> are the numbers that you put in front of each reactant and product. They are used to balance the equation and comply with the law of mass conservation.

By adjusting the coefficients you obtain the relative amounts (moles) of each product and reactant, i.e. the mole ratios.

Here an example.

The first information is what is called a word equation. E.g. nitrogen and hydrogen react to form ammonia:

  • Word equation: hydrogen + nitrogen → ammonia

  • Skeleton equation: H₂ + N₂ → NH₃

        This equation shows the chemical formulae but it is not balanced. The law of mass conservation is not observed.

So, in order to comply with the law of mass conservation you adjust the coefficients as follow.

  • Balanced chemical equation: 3H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃

        As you see, it was necessary to modify the coefficients. Now the law of conservation of mass is observed and you get the mole ratios:

  • 3 mol H₂ : 1 mol  N₂ : 2 mol NH₃
