A standard solution of FeSCN2+ is prepared by combining 9.0 mL of 0.20 M Fe(NO3)3 with 1.0 mL of 0.0020 M KSCN . The standard so

lution had an absorbance of 0.480 . Fe3+(aq)+SCN−(aq)↽−−⇀FeSCN2+(aq) A trial solution was made in a similar manner, but with a more dilute Fe(NO3)3 reagent. The initial SCN− concentration, immediately after mixing, was 0.00050 M . This trial solution had absorbance of 0.220 . What is the equilibrium concentration of SCN− in the trial solution?

Answer : The equilibrium concentration of SCN^- in the trial solution is 4.58\times 10^{-8}M

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the initial moles of Fe^{3+} and SCN^-.

\text{Moles of }Fe^{3+}=\text{Concentration of }Fe^{3+}\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }Fe^{3+}=0.20M\times 9.0mL=1.8mmol

and,

\text{Moles of }SCN^-=\text{Concentration of }SCN^-\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }SCN^-=0.0020M\times 1.0mL=0.0020mmol

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

Fe^{3+}(aq)+SCN^-(aq)\rightleftharpoons FeSCN^{2+}(aq)

Since 1 mole of Fe^{3+} reacts with 1 mole of SCN^- to give 1 mole of FeSCN^{2+}

The limiting reagent is, SCN^-

So, the number of moles of FeSCN^{2+} = 0.0020 mmole

Now we have to calculate the concentration of FeSCN^{2+}.

\text{Concentration of }FeSCN^{2+}=\frac{0.0020mmol}{9.0mL+1.0mL}=0.00020M

Using Beer-Lambert's law :

A=\epsilon \times C\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution

C = concentration of solution

l = path length

\epsilon = molar absorptivity coefficient

\epsilon and l are same for stock solution and dilute solution. So,

\epsilon l=\frac{A}{C}=\frac{0.480}{0.00020M}=2400M^{-1}

For trial solution:

The equilibrium concentration of SCN^- is,

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=[SCN^-]_{initial}-[FeSCN^{2+}]

[SCN^-]_{initial} = 0.00050 M

Now calculate the [FeSCN^{2+}].

C=\frac{A}{\epsilon l}=\frac{0.220}{2400M^{-1}}=9.17\times 10^{-5}M

Now calculate the concentration of SCN^-.

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=[SCN^-]_{initial}-[FeSCN^{2+}]

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=(0.00050M)-(9.17\times 10^{-5}M)

[SCN^-]_{eqm}=4.58\times 10^{-8}M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of SCN^- in the trial solution is 4.58\times 10^{-8}M

<span>The finches that Darwin studied in the Galapagos islands have evolved with different types of beaks: drilling, cracking, tearing, and fishing. This is an example of B. adaptive radiation.
These birds have adapted to their environment - they needed to drill, crack plants, fish, etc. so their beaks have changed and adapted so as to fulfill those needs.
Predation is used for hunting smaller animals, warning coloration refers to a change of color, and protective resemblance refers to an animal blending with its surroundings.

Determine the specific heat of a material if a 35. Gram sample absorbed 96. Joules of energy as it was heated from 293 K to 313
podryga [215]

The specific heat of a material is 0.137 J/g°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The specific heat formula relates the heat energy required to perform a certain reaction with the mass of the reactants, specific heat and the change in temperature during the reaction.

Q = mcΔT

Here m is the mass, Q is the heat energy required, ΔT is the change in temperature and c is the specific heat.

So, if we have to determine the specific heat of the object, then we have to determine the ratio of heat required to mass of the object with change in time, as shown below.

c = \frac{Q}{m\ \times\ delta\ T}

As mass of the object m is given as 35 g and the energy is said to be absorbed so Q = 96 J.

The temperature values given should be changed from kelvin to celsius first. So, initial temperature 293 K will become 293-273.15 = 19.85°C.

Similarly, the final temperature will be 313 - 273.15 = 39.85°C.

Then, ΔT = 39.85-19.85 = 20 °C

Then,

c = \frac{96}{35 \times 20} =\frac{96}{700}  = 0.137 J/g^{o}C

So, the specific heat of a material is 0.137 J/g°C.

Nitrous acid, hno2, has a ka of 7. 1 ✕ 10-4. what are [h3o ], [no2-], and [oh -] in 0. 40 m hno2?
romanna [79]

Nitrous acid, hno2, has an acid dissociation constant - ka of 7. 1 ✕ 10-4. what are [h3o ], [no2-], and [oh -] in 0. 40 m hno2 - 4829 M [OH^-] = 1.439 x 10^-14 M

The acid dissociation constant (Ka) is used to differentiate between strong and weak acids. Strong acids have very high Ka values. The Ka value is determined by examining the equilibrium constant for acid dissociation. The acid dissociates more readily as the Ka increases.

The original molecular definition of an acid, according to Arrhenius, is a molecule that dissociates in an aqueous solution, releasing the hydrogen ion H+ (a proton): HA A + H+. acid dissociation constant is an equilibrium constant for this dissociation reaction.

What will happen to the final pressure of a cylinder when the volume is doubled.
OLEGan [10]

If temperature were to double the pressure would likewise double. Increased temperature would increase the energy of the molecules and the number of collisions would also increase causing the increase in pressure.

What is the pH of a solution prepared by dissolving<br>0.8 g NaOH in water to make 200 mL solution?​
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

pH>7

Explanation:

bases tend to increase the pH of a solution. since water has the pH of 7 and NaOH has pHof 14, the overall pH of solution will increase.

hope it's helpful.
