Electronegativity of boron is the highest in the group and it will form covalent bonds in all his combinations.

The rest of the group will form bonds with intermediate nature between covalent and ions bods in their respective compounds, with thallium (Tl) behaving most close to a metal.

Moreover boron have a very high melting points (around 2200 °C) while in the boron cristal the chemical bonds are directed in space, similar with carbon suggesting his nature as a non-metal.

Other elements form the group Al, Ga, In, Tl have lower melting points 660, 30, 157 and 304  °C, respectively. Also in the elemental state, they have metallic characteristics: metalic luster, ductility, high electrical and thermal conductivity.

Elanso [62]

When AgNO₃ solution is added to mixture of NaNO₃ and NaCl, it reacts with NaCl and gives precipitate of AgCl, which is white solid. The reaction takes place in 1:1 stoicheometric ratio as per the following balanced reaction:

NaCl + AgNO₃→ AgCl ↓ + NaNO₃. As per reaction 1 mole NaCl reacts with 1 mole AgNO₃ and gives  of solid precipitate of 1 mole AgCl.

0.641 g= \frac{0.641}{143.32}= 4.47 X 10^{-3} mole of solid AgCl is produced. This indicates 4.47 X 10^{-3} mole NaCl =4.47 X 10^{-3}X58.5 g of Nacl reacts to give 0.641 g of AgCl. So, mass percentage of NaCl present in mixture=\frac{0.26}{1.5} X 100= 17.33 %.

Answer:

  3.0×10⁻¹³ M

Explanation:

The solubility product Ksp is the product of the concentrations of the ions involved. This relation can be used to find the solubility of interest.

<h3>Equation</h3>

The power of each concentration in the equation for Ksp is the coefficient of the species in the balanced equation.

  Ksp = [Al₃⁺³]×[OH⁻]³

<h3>Solving for [Al₃⁺³]</h3>

The initial concentration [OH⁻] is that in water, 10⁻⁷ M. The reaction equation tells us there are 3 OH ions for each Al₃ ion. If x is the concentration [Al₃⁺³], then the reaction increases the concentration [OH⁻] by 3x.

This means the solubility product equation is ...

  Ksp = x(10⁻⁷ +3x)³

For the given Ksp = 3×10⁻³⁴, we can estimate the value of x will be less than 10⁻⁸. This means the sum will be dominated by the 10⁻⁷ term, and we can figure x from ...

  3.0×10⁻³⁴ = x(10⁻⁷)³

Then x = [Al₃⁺³] will be ...

  [\text{Al}_3^{\,+3}]=\dfrac{3.0\times10^{-34}}{10^{-21}}\approx \boxed{3.0\times10^{-13}\qquad\text{moles per liter}}

We note this value is significantly less than 10⁻⁷, so our assumption that it could be neglected in the original Ksp equation is substantiated.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The attachment shows the solution of the 4th-degree Ksp equation in x. The only positive real root (on the bottom line) rounds to 3.0×10^-13.

Acetanilide has a solubility of 1.00 g/185 ml in 25 oc water and 1.00 g/20 ml in 100 oc water. what is the minimum volume of wat
Likurg_2 [28]

In the crystallization process the solid compound is dissolved in the solvent at elevated temperature and the crystallize product obtained by slow cooling of the  solution. Here the solubility of acetanilide at 100°C is 1g per 20mL of water. Thus to dissolve 500mg of acetanilide at high temperature that is 100°C we need 10mL of water.

Now at 25°C after the re-crystallization there will be some amount of dissolve acetanilide. Which can be calculated as- 185mL of water is needed to dissolve 1g or 1000mg of acetanilide at 25°C. Thus in 10mL of water there will be \frac{10X1000}{185}=54.05gmg of acetanilide.
