2. A solution is 0.01 M in Ba2+ and 0.01 M in Ca2+. Sodium sulfate is added to selectively precipitate one of the cations, while

leaving the other in solution. a) Given that BaSO4 and CaSO4 have Ksp values of 1.07 x 10-10 and 7.10 x 10-5 respectively, which cation will precipitate first? Explain why. b) What is the minimum concentration of SO42⁻ that will trigger the precipitation of the cation that precipitates first?

Answer:

Explanation:

The solution contain  0.01 M concentration of Ba²⁺

0.01M concentration of Ca²⁺

Ksp ( solubility constant) for BaSO₄ = 1.07 × 10⁻¹⁰

Ksp for CaSO₄ = 7.10 × 10⁻⁵

(BaSO₄) = (Ba²⁺) (SO₄²⁻)

1.07 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 0.01 M (SO₄²⁻)

1.07 × 10⁻¹⁰ / 0.01 = ( SO₄²⁻)

1.07 × 10⁻⁸ M = ( SO₄²⁻)

so the minimum of concentration of concentration sulfate needed is 1.07 × 10⁻⁸ M

For CaSO₄

CaSO₄ = ( Ca²⁺) (  SO₄²⁻)

7.10 × 10⁻⁵  = 0.01 (SO₄²⁻)

(SO₄²⁻) = 7.10 × 10⁻⁵   / 0.01 = 7.10 × 10⁻³ M

so BaSO₄ will precipitate first since its cation (0.01 M Ba²⁺) required a less concentration of SO₄²⁻ (1.07 × 10⁻⁸ M ) compared to CaSO₄

b) The minimum concentration of SO₄²⁻ that will trigger the precipitation of the cation ( 0.01 M Ba²⁺) that precipitates first is 1.07 × 10⁻⁸ M

Given 3.5M and 10.5ml of zn(oh)2 find the molarity of nitric acid given 15.0 ml of nitric acid
lana [24]

10.5 milliliters of 3.5 M zinc hydroxide react completely with 15.0 milliliters of 4.9 M nitric acid.

<h3>What is molarity?</h3>

It is a unit of concentration equivalent to moles of solute per liter of solution.

  • Step 1: Write the balanced equation.

Zn(OH)₂ + 2 HNO₃ ⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2 H₂O

  • Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of Zn(OH)₂.

10.5 mL of 3.5 M Zn(OH)₂ react.

0.0105 L × 3.5 mol/L = 0.037 mol

  • Step 3: Calculate the reacting moles of HNO₃.

The molar ratio of Zn(OH)₂ to HNO₃ is 1:2.

0.037 mol Zn(OH)₂ × 2 mol HNO₃/1 mol Zn(OH)₂ = 0.074 mol HNO₃

  • Step 4: Calculate the molarity of HNO₃.

[HNO₃] = 0.074 mol / 0.0150 L = 4.9 M

10.5 milliliters of 3.5 M zinc hydroxide react completely with 15.0 milliliters of 4.9 M nitric acid.

Which is an example of an object increasing its kinetic energy
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

The answer to this question is the A choice. A rocket before launch.

Explanation:

In the definition of kinetic energy, it says: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.
