A 2.684-g sample of zinc oxide was reduced by hydrogen gas, resulting in 2. 156 g of pure zinc metal. Determine the empirical fo

Afina-wow [57]

The empirical formula of the initial zinc oxide is ZnO.

<h3>What is Empirical Formula?</h3>

The empirical formula of a compound represents the ratios of elements in a compound but not the actual numbers or arrangement of the atoms.

It is the lowest whole number ratio of the element in the compound.

<h3>How to find out the empirical formula?</h3>

Find out the given masses and molar masses of the elements

The molar mass of Zn = 65 gmol⁻¹

Given the mass of Zn = 2.156 g

The molar mass of Oxygen = 16 gmol⁻¹

The mass of Oxygen = Mass of a sample of zinc oxide - the mass of zinc metal

= (2.684 - 2.156) g

= 0.528 g

Find the number of moles of the elements in the compound

The number of moles is given by

$n = \frac{m}{M}$

where m = given mass and

M = Molar mass

Number of moles of Zinc = $\frac{2.156}{65}$ = 0.033 moles

Number of moles of Oxygen = $\frac{0.528}{16}$ = 0.033 moles

Find the simplest ratios of the elements in the compound. To find the ratios simply divide the number of moles by the lowest number of moles obtained.

Here, the number of moles is the same for both elements. Hence, the simplest ratio for Zn:O is 1:1.

Therefore, the empirical formula of zinc oxide is ZnO.

For the generic equilibrium HA(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + A−(aq), which of these statements is true? For the generic equilibrium , which of

timama [110]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

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 HA and KA follows the equation:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)$

$KA\rightleftharpoons K^+(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)$

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, $A^-$ 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 HA.

Thus, the addition of KA will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

Equilibrium constant depends on the temperature of the system. It does not have any effect on any change of pH.

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ions present in the solution

If the solution has high hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be low.
If the solution has low hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be high.

As, the equilibrium is shifting in the left direction, that means concentration of $H^+$ ions are getting decreases. This will increase the pH of the solution.

Hence, the correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p4.

MissTica

The likely thing which happens when two atoms of this element move toward each other is covalent bonding.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This involves the atoms of element sharing electrons in order to achieve a stable octet configuration.

The element is oxygen which has an atomic number of 8 and needs two electrons to complete its outermost shell which results in the formation of two covalent bonds.
