2KOH(aq) + CoBr₂(aq) → 2KBr(aq) + Co(OH)₂(s)

2K⁺ + 2OH⁻ + Co²⁺ + 2Br⁻ → 2K⁺ + 2Br⁻ + Co(OH)₂

K⁺ and Br⁻ are spectator ions

Answer:

K+ and Br-

Explanation:

A spectator ion is an ion which remains in the same form in both the reactants and product side of a chemical reaction i.e. it does not take part in the reaction.

The reaction between KOH and CoBr2 can be represented as:

2KOH (aq) + CoBr2(aq) → 2KBr(aq) + Co(OH)2(s)

In the above equation the three aqueous solutions, KOH, CoBr2 and KBr will ionize into respective ions unlike Co(OH)2 precipitate. The Total ionic equation can be depicted as:

2K+ + 2OH- + Co2+ + 2Br- → 2K+ + 2Br- + Co(OH)2

The K+ and Br- ions remain unchanged and can be cancelled out giving the net ionic equation:

2OH- + Co2+ → Co(OH)2

Thus, K+ and Br- are spectator ions

In the laboratory, a student dilutes 13.5 mL of a 11.6 M hydroiodic acid solution to a total volume of 100.0 mL. What is the con

igomit [66]

Answer: The concentration of the diluted solution is 1.566M.

Explanation:

The dilution equation is presented as this: $M_{s} V_{s} =M_{d} V_{d}$ .

·M= molarity (labeled as M)

·V= volume (labeled as L)

·s= stock solution (what you started with)

·d= diluted solution (what you have after)

Now that we know what each part of the formula symbolizes, we can plug in our data.

$11.6M*13.5mL=M_{d} *100mL$

We cannot leave it like this because the volumes must be in Liters, not milliliters. To convert this, we divide the milliliters by 1000.

$13.5mL/1000=0.0135L$ $100mL/1000=0.1L$

Now that we have the conversions, let's plug them into the equation.

$11.6M*0.0135L=M_{d} *0.1L$

The only thing that we need to do now is actually solving the answer.

$M_{d} =\frac{11.6M*0.0135L}{0.1L}$ $M_{d} =1.566M$

From the work shown above, the answer is 1.566M.

I hope this helps!! Pls mark brainliest :)

How will the concentration of H+ and OH− ions change when a substance with a pH 3.2 is added to water? Both H+ and OH− will incr

Lunna [17]

Also water H2O is made of H+ and OH- ions. so when an acidic substance is added to water the concentration of H+ ions increase.

Which choice best describes what would happen if a cube with a density of 0.2 g/mL were placed in a container of water?

Andrew [12]

Answer:

A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Explanation:

The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.

The density of water is 1g/mL

If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .

Here the density is less than that of water.

The density is 0.2g/mL

Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.
