Answer:
Option (A) the solid X is ground to a fine powder.
Explanation:
X(s) + 2B(aq) → X+(aq) + B2(g)
In the reaction above, the rate of the reaction will be highest, when X being a solid is ground to fine powder.
Grounding X to fine powder simply means increasing the surface area of X.
An increase in surface area of reactants will definitely increase the rate of reaction because the particles of the solid will collide with the right orientation and hence speed up the reaction rate.
Answer:
Mole fraction H₂O → 0.72
Mole fraction C₂H₅OH → 0.28
Explanation:
By the mass of the two elements in the solution, we determine the moles of each:
25 g . 1 mol/ 18g = 1.39 moles of water (solute)
25 g . 1 mol / 46 g = 0.543 moles of ethanol (solvent)
Mole fraction solute = Moles of solute / Total moles
Mole fraction solvent = Moles of solvent / Total moles
Total moles = Moles of solute + Moles of solvent
1.39 moles of solute + 0.543 moles of solvent = 1.933 moles → Total moles
Mole fraction H₂O = 1.39 / 1.933 → 0.72
Mole fraction C₂H₅OH= 0.543 / 1.933 → 0.28
Remember that sum of mole fractions = 1
Answer: 
Explanation:
Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as 
The equation for the ionization of magnesium phosphate is given as:
When the solubility of 
is S moles/liter, then the solubility of 
will be 3S moles\liter and solubility of 
will be 2S moles/liter.
Thus S = 0.173 g/L or
