Hydroxylapatite, Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, has a solubility constant of Ksp = 2.34 x 10^-59. Solid hydroxylapatite is dissolved in water

to form a saturated solution. What is the concentration of Ca+2 in this solution if [OH-] is somehow fixed at 5.30 x 10-6 M?

Answer:

The concentration of [Ca²⁺] is 8.47 x 10⁻³ M

Explanation:

We consider the solubility of hydroxyapatite,

Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ ⇔ 10Ca²⁺ + 6PO₄³⁻ + 2 OH⁻

Assumed that there is <em>a</em> mol of hydoxyapatite disolved in water, yielding <em>10a</em> mol Ca²⁺ of  and <em>6a</em> mol of PO₄³⁻

We also have Ksp equation,

Ksp = [Ca²⁺]¹⁰ x [PO₄³⁻]⁶ x [OH⁻]² = 2.34 x 10⁻⁵⁹

     ⇔  10a¹⁰ x 6a⁶ x (5.30 x 10⁻⁶)² = 2.24 x 10⁻⁵⁹

     ⇔  60a¹⁶                                    = 2.24 x 10⁻⁵⁹ / 5.30 x 10⁻¹²

     ⇔  a¹⁶                                         = 0.007 x 10⁻⁴⁷ = 7 x 10⁻⁵⁰

     ⇔  a                                           = \sqrt[16]{7 . 10^{-50} } =  8.47 x 10⁻⁴

Hence,

[Ca²⁺] = 10<em>a</em> = 8.47 x 10⁻³ M

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, to NO2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 60°C, the rate constant is 2.8 × 10
Sati [7]

Answer:

a. 113 min

Explanation:

Considering the equilibrium:-

                   2N₂O₅ ⇔ 4NO₂ + O₂

At t = 0        125 kPa

At t = teq     125 - 2x      4x        x

Thus, total pressure = 125 - 2x + 4x + x = 125 - 3x

125 - 3x = 176 kPa

x = 17 kPa

Remaining pressure of N₂O₅ = 125 - 2*17 kPa = 91 kPa

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given that:

The rate constant, k = 2.8\times 10^{-3} min⁻¹

Initial concentration [A_0] = 125 kPa

Final concentration [A_t] = 91 kPa

Time = ?

Applying in the above equation, we get that:-

91=125e^{-2.8\times 10^{-3}\times t}

125e^{-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t}=91

-2.8\times \:10^{-3}t=\ln \left(\frac{91}{125}\right)

t=113\ min

Because water molecules are polar and carbon dioxide molecules are nonpolar,
Gala2k [10]

The correct is D.

Water is a polar molecule and it has polar bonds, which carry partially positive and partially negative charges. This polar bond increases the attraction between molecules of water and thus it requires a greater energy to break the bond between the molecules of water compare to carbon dioxide, which is a non polar molecule. Thus, water has a higher boiling point than carbon dioxide.

Rainbow [258]
Hello!

The pressure of the gas when it's temperature reaches 928 °C is 3823,36 kPa

To solve that we need to apply Gay-Lussac's Law. It states that the pressure of a gas when the volume is left constant (like in the case of a sealed container like an aerosol can) is proportional to temperature. This is the relationship derived from this law that we use to solve this problem:

P2= \frac{P1}{T1}*T2= \frac{103 kPa}{25}*928=3823,36 kPa

Have a nice day!
