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.

Which question cannot be answered by science?
Bumek [7]
Hi!

The question that science cannot answer is any question which is opinionated. It cannot have one true answer because it is simply subjective.

Other examples would be any question which cannot successfully follow the scientific method.

So, in the case of the question - the answer is going to be whichever question is <em>opinionated. </em>Just as a hint, not <em>everyone </em><em>thinks </em>endangered animals <em>should </em>be protected. 

Hopefully, this helps! =)

How would a collapsing universe affect light emitted from clusters and superclusters? A. Light would acquire a blueshift. B. Lig
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Choice A: Light would acquire a blueshift.

Explanation:

When a universe collapses, clusters of stars start to move towards each other. There are two ways to explain why light from these stars will acquire a blueshift.

Stars move toward each other; Frequency increases due to Doppler's Effect.

The time period t of a beam of light is the same as the time between two consecutive peaks. If \lambda is the wavelength of the beam, and both the source and observer are static, the time period T will be the same as the time it takes for light travel the distance of one \lambda (at the speed of light in vacuum, c).

\displaystyle t = \frac{\lambda}{c}.

Frequency f is the reciprocal of time period. Therefore

\displaystyle f = \frac{1}{t} = \frac{c}{\lambda}.

Light travels in vacuum at a constant speed. However, in a collapsing universe, the star that emit the light keeps moving towards the observer. Let the distance between the star and the observer be d when the star sent the first peak.

  • Distance from the star when the first peak is sent: d.
  • Time taken for the first peak to arrive: \displaystyle t_1 =\frac{d}{c}.

The star will emit its second peak after a time of. Meanwhile, the distance between the star and the observer keeps decreasing. Let v be the speed at which the star approaches the observer. The star will travel a distance of v\cdot t before sending the second peak.

  • Distance from the star when the second peak is sent: d - v\cdot t.
  • Time taken for the second peak to arrive: \displaystyle t_2 =t + \frac{d - v\cdot t}{c}.

The period of the light is t when emitted from the star. However, the period will appear to be shorter than t for the observer. The time period will appear to be:

\begin{aligned}\displaystyle t' &= t_2 - t_1\\ &= t + \frac{d - v\cdot t}{c} - \frac{d}{c}\\&= t + (\frac{d}{c} - \frac{v\cdot t}{c}) -\frac{d}{c}\\&= t - \frac{v\cdot t}{c} \end{aligned}.

The apparent time period t' is smaller than the initial time period, t. Again, the frequency of a beam of light is inversely proportional to its period. A smaller time period means a higher frequency. Colors at the high-frequency end of the visible spectrum are blue and violet. The color of the beam of light will shift towards the blue end of the spectrum when observed than when emitted. In other words, a collapsing universe will cause a blueshift on light from distant stars.

The Space Fabric Shrinks; Wavelength decreases as the space is compressed.

When the universe collapses, one possibility is that clusters of stars move towards each other. Alternatively, the space fabric might shrink, which will also bring the clusters toward each other.

It takes time for light from a distant cluster to reach an observer on the ground. The space fabric keeps shrinking while the beam of light makes its way through the space. The wavelength of the beam will shrink at the same rate. The wavelength of the beam of light will be shorter by the time the beam arrives at its destination.

Colors at the short-wavelength end of the visible spectrum are blue and violet. Again, the color of the light will shift towards the blue end of the spectrum. The conclusion will be the same: a collapsing universe will cause a blueshift on light from distant stars.

Determine the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene. Benzene has a boiling point of 80.1°C and a boiling point
xeze [42]

Answer: The boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is 89.5^0C

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point:

\Delta T_b=i\times k_b\times m

where,

\Delta T_b = change in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for benzene which is a non electrolyte )

k_b = boiling point constant = 2.53^0C/kgmol

m = molality = 3.70

T_{solution}-T_{solvent}=i\times k_b\times m

T_{solution}-80.1^0C=1\times 2.53\times 3.70

T_{solution}=89.5^0C

Thus  the boiling point of a 3.70 m solution of phenol in benzene is 89.5^0C
