Answer:

Explanation:

Ksp(BaSO4)=1.07×10−10

BaSO₄ → Ba²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

1.07×10⁻¹⁰ = ( Ba²⁺) × ( SO₄²⁻)

but Ba²⁺ = 1.3×10⁻² M

1.07×10⁻¹⁰  = 1.3×10⁻² M × ( SO₄²⁻)

( SO₄²⁻)  = 1.07×10⁻¹⁰  / 1.3×10⁻² = 0.823 × 10⁻⁸ M

while Ksp(CaSO4)=7.10×10−5

CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

7.10×10⁻⁵ = 2.0×10⁻² × ( SO₄²⁻)

( SO₄²⁻)  = 7.10×10⁻⁵  /  2.0×10⁻² = 3.55 × 10⁻³ M

comparing the concentration of sulfate ions, Ba²⁺ cation will precipitate first because the Ba²⁺ requires 0.823 × 10⁻⁸ M sodium sulfate which less compared the about needed by CaSO₄

The balloon would be smaller and not float as well because of the low temperature. The particles in the balloon when in the car will slow down and get closer together because of the low temperature. That caused it to become more dense and smaller in size then before. When in the store, the particulars in the balloon we’re moving faster and more spread apart

A solution
timurjin [86]
The answer to your question is  C.  A solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances, so it couldn't have been A and D. Since a solution can't have its substances separated by a chemical means because they are chemically bonded, thus they are able to be separated by physical means

What word chemical equation describes Cavendish’s experiment with zinc?
LiRa [457]
The chemical reaction of Cavendish involving zinc would be a reaction between hydrochloric acid and zinc yielding zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. The balanced chemical equation would be:

2Zn + 2HCl = 2ZnCl + H2

This is an example of a single replacement reaction where zinc replaces hydrogen in the acid molecule.

What does a chemical bond results from a rearrangement of?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Atoms

Explanation:

Chemical bonds results from the rearrangement of atoms in a chemical species.

It deals with the various attractive forces joining chemical species togethe.

  • When atoms are re-arranged, they form chemical bonds that leads to production of new compounds.
  • This is made possible by the exchange or sharing of electrons.
  • The driving force for most interatomic bonding is the tendency to have completely filled outer energy levels like the noble gases.
  • When atoms are re-arranged in compounds they lead to the production of chemical bonds.
