Write einstein's equation that explains the energy from nuclear reactions. _________ use the caret symbol (^) to show an exponen

Katen [24]

I would say it should be Einstein's famous equation of e=mc^2 which means energy =mass x the speed of light squared. With this equation Einstein showed that energy comes from a mass travelling at the speed of light squared which is a fundamental equation to explain physical phenomena.

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of butane is: 2C2H2 + 5O2 CO2 + 2H2O 2CH4 + 5O2 2CO2 + 4H2O 2C4H10 + 13O2 8CO2

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Butane is C₄H₁₀.

$C_4H_{10} + O_2 \to CO_2 + H_2O \\ \\
\hbox{balance carbon and hydrogen on the right-hand side:} \\
C_4 H_{10} + O_2 \to 4 \ CO_2 + 5 \ H_2O \\ \\
\hbox{balance oxygen on the left-hand side:} \\
C_4 H_{10} + \frac{13}{2} \ O_2 \to 4 \ CO_2 + 5 \ H_2O \\ \\
\hbox{multiply by 2 to get rid of the fraction:} \\
2 \ C_4H_{10} + 13 \ O_2 \to 8 \ CO_2 + 10 \ H_2O$

The balanced equation is 2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ <span>→</span> 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O.

The solubility product of PbI2 is 7.9x10^-9. What is the molar solubility of PbI2 in distilled water?

Agata [3.3K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar solubility of $PbI_2$ is $1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium.

Solubility product is defined as the product of concentration of ions present in a solution each raised to the power its stoichiometric ratio.

The balanced equilibrium reaction for the ionization of calcium fluoride follows:

$PbI_2\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}+2I^-$

s 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be:

$K_{sp}=[Pb^{2+}][I^-]^2$

We are given:

$K_{sp}=7.9\times 10^{-9}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$7.9\times 10^{-9}=(s)\times (2s)^2\\\\7.9\times 10^{-9}=4s^3\\\\s=1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$

Hence, the molar solubility of $PbI_2$ is $1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$
