Calculate the molar solubility of PbCO3 when the Ksp of PbCO3 is 1.5*10^-15 at 25°C.

1 answer:

7 0

First, write the dissociation equation for PbCO3 which is PbCO3 = Pb^(2+) + CO3^(2-). Then, write the Ksp equation which is Ksp = [Pb^(2+)][CO3^(2-)]. The equation suggests that there is 1:1 molar ratio between the Pb^(2+), CO3^(2-) and the dissolved PbCO3. Thus in equation form, we can represent them as x. The Ksp equation is then: 1.5*10^-15 = x^2. The molar solubility of PbCO3, x, is then equal to 3.87*10^-8 moles per liter.

Poor precision in scientific measurement may arise from

Arturiano [62]

Based on the experience of the responder, to correctly calculate measurements in real-world. Firstly is to avoid errors as much as possible. Errors are what makes your measurement invalid and unreliable. There are two types of error which is called the systematic error and the random error. Each error has different sources. Words that were mentioned –invalid and unreliable are very important key aspects to determine that your measure is truly accurate and consistent. Some would recommend using the mean method, doing three trials in measuring and getting their mean, in response to this problem.

Which of the following is the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent?

Lyrx [107]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A ketone is an organic functional group that contains a carbon and oxygen atom bonded together through a double bond, that is, C=O.

For example, acetone $CH_{3}-CO-CH_{3}$ is a ketone.

Whereas a hydrocodone is a drug which is used to relieve from moderate to sever pain.It is mostly combined with other drugs and resulting in a chemical formula $C_{18}H_{21}NO_{3}.C_{4}H_{6}O_{6}$ .

A camphor is a volatile white color substance with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{16}O$ . It has aromatic smell and its taste is bitter.

A menthone is also an organic compound with chemical formula $C_{10}H_{18}O$ .

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the simplest ketone used as an organic solvent is acetone.

What is the volume of 0.80 grams of O2 gas at STP? (5 points) Group of answer choices 0.59 liters 0.56 liters 0.50 liters 0.47 l

Anarel [89]

Answer:

0.56 liters

Explanation:

First we convert 0.80 grams of O₂ into moles, using its molar mass:

0.80 g ÷ 32 g/mol = 0.025 mol

At STP, 1 mol of any given mass occupies 22.4 L. With that information in mind we calculate the volume that 0.025 moles of O₂ gas would occupy:

0.025 mol * 22.4 L/mol = 0.56 L

Thus the answer is 0.56 liters.

Suppose a 250. mL flask is filled with 0.30 mol of N_2 and 0.70 mol of NO. The following reaction becomes possible:N_2(g) +O2 →

Inessa [10]

Answer:

0.4 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium occurs when the velocity of the formation of the products is equal to the velocity of the formation of the reactants. It can be described by the equilibrium constant, which is the multiplication of the concentration of the products elevated by their coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentration of the reactants elevated by their coefficients. So, let's do an equilibrium chart for the reaction.

Because there's no O₂ in the beginning, the NO will decompose:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)

0.30 0 0.70 Initial

+x +x -2x Reacts (the stoichiometry is 1:1:2)

0.30+x x 0.70-2x Equilibrium

The equilibrium concentrations are the number of moles divided by the volume (0.250 L):

[N₂] = (0.30 + x)/0.250

[O₂] = x/0.25

[NO] = (0.70 - 2x)/0.250

K = [NO]²/([N₂]*[O₂])

K = $\frac{(\frac{0.70 -2x}{0.250})^2 }{\frac{0.30+x}{0.250}*\frac{x}{0.250} }$

7.70 = (0.70-2x)²/[(0.30+x)*x]

7.70 = (0.49 - 2.80x + 4x²)/(0.30x + x²)

4x² - 2.80x + 0.49 = 2.31x + 7.70x²

3.7x² + 5.11x - 0.49 = 0

Solving in a graphical calculator (or by Bhaskara's equation), x>0 and x<0.70

x = 0.09 mol

Thus,

[O₂] = 0.09/0.250 = 0.36 M ≅ 0.4 M

Your bedroom gets direct sunlight through a window during the hottest times of the day. you ask your mom to turn down the thermo

Kipish [7]

If you take your mom's advice, a. the room will be cooled by minimizing heat transfer by reflection.

The Sun is heating your room by its radiation.

The aluminium foil is shiny, so it reflects the Sun’s radiation back outside the window.

Convection is the transfer of heat caused by the air moving around in your room.

Conduction occurs only when a hot object is in contact with a cooler object.
