Answer:
Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵
Explanation:
<em>Full question is:</em>
<em>After mixing an excess PbCl2 with a fixed amount of water, it is found that the equilibrium concentration of Pb2+ is 2.8 × 10–2 M. What is Ksp for PbCl2?</em>
<em />
When an excess of PbCl₂ is added to water, Pb²⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are produced following Ksp equilibrium:
PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺ + 2Cl⁻
Ksp = [Pb²⁺] [Cl⁻]²
If an excess of PbCl₂ was added, an amount of Pb²⁺ is produced (X) and twice Pb²⁺ is produced as Cl⁻ (2X):
Ksp = [X] [2X]²
Ksp = 4X³
As X is the amount of Pb²⁺ = 2.8x10⁻²M:
Ksp = 4(2.8x10⁻²)³
<h3>Ksp = 8.8x10⁻⁵</h3>
Its D for the second energy level, but the first energy level is 2.
Answer:
Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperatures.
Explanation:
Greenhouse gases of which CO2 is a typical example are known to cause a gradual and steady increase in the surface temperature of the earth by trapping infrared rays close to the surface of the earth.
As the surface temperature of the earth rises, the surface temperature of the oceans rises also leading to the tendency towards hurricanes.
Hurricanes are violent storms which are known to form near the equator over warm ocean waters.
Hence, increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperature which in turn increases the chances of the occurrence of hurricanes.
