A solution containing a mixture of metal cations was treated with dilute HCl and no precipitate formed. Next, H2S was bubbled th

rough the acidic solution. A precipitate formed and was filtered off. Then, the pH was raised to about 8 and H2S was again bubbled through the solution. A precipitate again formed and was filtered off. Finally, the solution was treated with a sodium carbonate solution, which resulted in no precipitation. Which metal ions were definately present, which were definitely absent, and which may or may not have been present in the original mixture?Ag+, Ba2+, Mg2+, Hg2+, Pb2+, Hg2^2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Sn2+, Li+, Sb3+

Answer:

Explanation:

  Ions which will  be definitely  absent -

Ag⁺ , Hg₂⁺ , Pb⁺², because their chlorides are insoluble in water.

Ba⁺² ,Ca⁺² because their carbonates are insoluble in water,

Ions which will be definitely present  

Cu⁺² , Pb⁺² . Hg⁺² , Sb⁺³ , Sn⁺² , because their sulphides are insoluble at pH = 8.

For the rest nothing can be said.

Aluminum metal reacts with aqueous cobalt(II) nitrate to form aqueous aluminum nitrate and cobalt metal. What is the stoichiomet
Lelu [443]

Answer:

the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3

Explanation:

the unbalanced reaction would be

Co(NO₃)₂+ Al → Al(NO₃)₃ + Co

One way to solve is to build a system of linear equations for each element (or group as NO₃) , knowing that the number of atoms of each element is conserved.

For smaller reactions a quick way to solve it can be:

- First the Co as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- Then the Al as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- After that we look at the nitrates . There are 2 as reactants and 3 as products . Since the common multiple is 6 then multiply the reactant by 3 and the product by 2.

Finally the balanced equation will be

3 Co(NO₃)₂+ 2 Al → 2 Al(NO₃)₃ + 3 Co

then the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3

What are the primary products of burning a fossil fuel?
denis23 [38]
<span>Several important pollutants are produced by fossil fuel combustion: carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, and hydrocarbons. In addition, total suspended particulates contribute to air pollution, and nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons can combine in the atmosphere to form tropospheric ozone, the major constituent of smog.

Carbon monoxide is a gas formed as a by-product during the incomplete combustion of all fossil fuels. Exposure to carbon monoxide can cause headaches and place additional stress on people with heart disease. Cars and trucks are the primary source of carbon monoxide emissions.

Two oxides of nitrogen--nitrogen dioxide and nitric oxide--are formed in combustion. Nitrogen oxides appear as yellowish-brown clouds over many city skylines. They can irritate the lungs, cause bronchitis and pneumonia, and decrease resistance to respiratory infections. They also lead to the formation of smog. The transportation sector is responsible for close to half of the US emissions of nitrogen oxides; power plants produce most of the rest.

Sulfur oxides are produced by the oxidization of the available sulfur in a fuel. Utilities that use coal to generate electricity produce two-thirds of the nation's sulfur dioxide emissions. Nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides are important constituents of acid rain. These gases combine with water vapor in clouds to form sulfuric and nitric acids, which become part of rain and snow. As the acids accumulate, lakes and rivers become too acidic for plant and animal life. Acid rain also affects crops and buildings.

Hydrocarbons are a broad class of pollutants made up of hundreds of specific compounds containing carbon and hydrogen. The simplest hydrocarbon, methane, does not readily react with nitrogen oxides to form smog, but most other hydrocarbons do. Hydrocarbons are emitted from human-made sources such as auto and truck exhaust, evaporation of gasoline and solvents, and petroleum refining.

The white haze that can be seen over many cities is tropospheric ozone, or smog. This gas is not emitted directly into the air; rather, it is formed when ozone precursors mainly nonmethane hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides react in the presence of heat and sunlight. Human exposure to ozone can produce shortness of breath and, over time, permanent lung damage. Research shows that ozone may be harmful at levels even lower than the current federal air standard. In addition, it can reduce crop yields.

Finally, fossil fuel use also produces particulates, including dust, soot, smoke, and other suspended matter, which are respiratory irritants. In addition, particulates may contribute to acid rain formation.

Also, water and land pollution.

effect. RbClO(s) → Rb+(aq) + ClO−(aq) HClO(aq) + H2O(l) equilibrium reaction arrow H3O+(aq) + ClO−(aq) The degree of dissociatio
Lemur [1.5K]

Explanation:

Common ion effect is defined as the effect which occurs on equilibrium when a common ion (an ion which is already present in the solution) is added to a solution. This effect generally decreases the solubility of a solute.

Equilibrium reaction of strontium sulfate and sodium sulfate follows the equation:

RbClO(s)\rightarrow Rb^{+}(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)

HClO(aq)+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^+(aq.)+ClO^{-}(aq.)

According to Le-Chateliers principle: If there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in order to minimize the effect.

In the equilibrium reactions, hypochlorite ion is getting increased on the product side, so the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize this effect, which is in the direction of hydrogen hypochlorite.

Thus, the addition hypochlorite ions will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

The dissociation of hydrogen hypochlorite is suppressed due to the common ion effect.

Hello Friends! think you guys can help a sister out lol &gt; Based on the following image, what is the chemical formula of the c
kiruha [24]

Answer:

CO_2

Explanation:

Looking at the atom, you see that there is 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms.

The chemical formula of Carbon is just C (from the periodic table), and the chemical formula of Oxygen is just O (from the periodic table).

When you create the chemical formula of a compound, you want to indicate how many atoms of each element there are. Here, since there are 2 oxygen atoms, you want to have some form of O_2 , and since there's only 1 carbon atom, you want to have some form of C.

Now, we just put it together: CO_2 (this is btw carbon dioxide)

Hope this helps!
