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.

hydrogen chloride, hydrogen nitrate (v), sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide. Name a substance known as common salt​
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

C: Sodium chloride

Explanation:

Common salt is gotten when sodium atoms reacts with chlorine atoms in an exothermic reaction to form an ionic substance known as sodium chloride with the chemical formula NaCl.

Equation is;

2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl

Looking at the options, the correct one is Sodium chloride.

How much mass do 3.4 moles of silver contain?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

367.2 g of silver

Explanation:

To find the mass of a substance knowing the number of moles we use the following formula:

number of mole = mass / molecular weight

In the case of silver we use the atomic weight of 108 g/mole.

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of silver = 3.4 moles × 108 g/mole

mass of silver = 367.2 g
