Describe what happens to an ionic compound when it has been fully dissolved in water

1 answer:

6 0

When you immerse an ionic compound in water, the ions are attracted to the water molecules, each of which carries a polar charge. If the attraction between the ions and the water molecules is great enough to break the bonds holding the ions together, the compound dissolves.

Write the concentration equilibrium constant expression for this reaction.

Akimi4 [234]

In a chemical reaction, the equilibrium constant refers to the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium, that is, a condition attained by a dynamic chemical system after adequate time has passed, and at which its composition has no measurable capacity to undergo any kind of further modification.

The given reaction is: HCN (aq) + OH⁻ = CN⁻ (aq) + H2O (l)

The equilibrium constant = product of concentration of products / product of concentration of reactants

(Here, H2O is not considered as its concentration is very high)

So, Keq = [CN⁻] / [HCN] [OH⁻]

5. What are the relative rates of diffusion for methane, CH, and oxygen, O2? If O2 la travels 1.00 m in a certain amount of time

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The relative rates of diffusion for methane and oxygen is 1.4142.

Methane gas will be able to travel 1.4142 meter in the same conditions.

Explanation:

To calculate the rate of diffusion of gas, we use Graham's Law.

This law states that the rate of effusion or diffusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas. Mathematically written as:

$\text{Rate of diffusion}\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Molar mass of the gas}}}$
