Answer:

D

Explanation:

I - You should account the mass of the weighing paper to reduce it from the total mass at the end of the process, having only the mass of the Silver Chloride.

II - The precipitation of the silve chloride will occur independently of the temperature, because the Kps of this salt is very low (Ksp = [Ag+] .[Cl-]).

III - Washing the precipitate will secure the purity of the final product, it won't allow any other contaminant to be in your precipitante which could change your final mass.

IV - You should heat you AgCl precipitate so it will be dry, because of that the mass you will obtain is only the mass of the weighing paper and the silver chloride and nothing else.

Answer:(D) I, III, & IV

Explanation:

Firstly, the precipitate needs to be washed to remove water soluble impurities adsorbed on the surface of the precipitate which could affect its mass. Secondly, the precipitate must be heated to constant mass to drive off solvent molecules that adhered to the solid and could inflate the mass of the precipitate thereby introducing error to the analysis. The mass of the weighing paper must be accounted for because the mass read from the balance is the mass of the sample+ weighing paper.

Which metal atoms can form ionic bonds by losing electrons from both the outermost and next to outermost principal energy levels
RoseWind [281]

Full question options;

(Fe, Pb, Mg, or Ca)

Answer:

Iron - Fe

Explanation:

We understand tht metals pretty much form bonds by losing their valence (outermost electrons). But this question specifically asks for metals that lose beyond their outermost electrons; next to outermost principal energy levels.

Pb, Mg, and Ca only lose their outermost electrons to form the following ions;

Pb2+, Mg2+, and Ca2+.

This is because their ions have achieved a stable octet configuration - the dreamland of atoms where they are satisfied and don't need to go into reactions again.

Iron on the other hand has the following electronic configurations;

Fe:  [Ar]4s2 3d6

Fe2+:  [Ar]4s0 3d6

Fe3+:  [Ar]4s0 3d5

This means ion can lose both the ooutermost electrons (4s) and next to outermost principal energy levels (3d). So correct option is Iron.

How do stomata help a plant maintain balance with their environment?
AnnZ [28]

Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis .
