Answer: (a) The solubility of CuCl in pure water is 1.1 \times 10^{-3} M.

(b) The solubility of CuCl in 0.1 M NaCl is 9.5 \times 10^{-3} M.

Explanation:

(a)  Chemical equation for the given reaction in pure water is as follows.

           CuCl(s) \rightarrow Cu^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq)

Initial:                         0            0

Change:                    +x           +x

Equilibm:                   x             x

K_{sp} = 1.2 \times 10^{-6}

And, equilibrium expression is as follows.

          K_{sp} = [Cu^{+}][Cl^{-}]

       1.2 \times 10^{-6} = x \times x

             x = 1.1 \times 10^{-3} M

Hence, the solubility of CuCl in pure water is 1.1 \times 10^{-3} M.

(b)  When NaCl is 0.1 M,

       CuCl(s) \rightarrow Cu^{+}(aq) + Cl^{-}(aq),  K_{sp} = 1.2 \times 10^{-6}

   Cu^{+}(aq) + 2Cl^{-}(aq) \rightleftharpoons CuCl_{2}(aq),  K = 8.7 \times 10^{4}

Net equation: CuCl(s) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow CuCl_{2}(aq)

               K' = K_{sp} \times K

                          = 0.1044

So for, CuCl(s) + Cl^{-}(aq) \rightarrow CuCl_{2}(aq)

Initial:                     0.1                 0

Change:                -x                   +x

Equilibm:            0.1 - x                x

Now, the equilibrium expression is as follows.

              K' = \frac{CuCl_{2}}{Cl^{-}}

         0.1044 = \frac{x}{0.1 - x}

              x = 9.5 \times 10^{-3} M

Therefore, the solubility of CuCl in 0.1 M NaCl is 9.5 \times 10^{-3} M.

What is the molarity of a potassium triiodide solution, KI3(aq), if 30.00 mL of the solution is required to completely react wit
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.203 M

Explanation:

Using the formula C(oxi) x V(oxi) / [C(red)  x  V(red)] = N(oxi) / N(red)

Where oxi and red means reducing agent and oxidising agent respectively.

C = Concentration, V = Volume and N = number of moles.

C(oxi) = 0.5 M

V(oxi) = mL

C(red) = ?

V(red) = 30mL

 Equation of reaction = 2K2S2O3 + KI3 = K2S4O6 + 3KI

so N(red) = 1 , N(oxi) = 2

from the equation above,

C(red) = 0.5 x 25 x 1 / (2 x 30)

          = 0.203 M.

When aluminum is placed in concentrated hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is produced. 2 Al ( s ) + 6 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ 2AlCl3 ( aq ) +
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is  V = 19.9 L

Explanation:

Data

mass of Al = 8.60 g

volume of H₂ = ?

Balanced chemical reaction

                 2Al  +  6HCl  ⇒   2AlCl₃  +  3H₂

1.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of H₂ produced

Atomic mass of Al = 2 x 27 = 54 g

Atomic mass of H₂ = 6 x 1 = 6 g

                54 g of Al -------------------- 6 g of H₂

                  8 g  of Al -------------------  x

                  x = (8 x 6) / 54

                  x = 48 / 54

                  x = 0.89 g of H₂

2.- Calculate the volume of H₂

- Convert the H₂ to moles

                    1 g of H₂ --------------- 1 mol

                   0.89 g    ---------------- x

                    x = 0.89 moles

                    1 mol of H₂ -------------- 22.4 l

                   0.89 moles  ------------- x

                    x = (0.89 x 22.4) / 1

                   x = 19.9 L
