Answer:When a bus suddenly starts, the passengers sitting or standing in the bus tend to fall backward. This is due to inertia of rest and can be explained as follows: when the bus suddenly starts, the lower part of the body of the passenger which is in contact with the bus moves along with the bus while the upper part of the body tends to retain its state of rest due to inertia. As a result, the passenger falls backward.

A solution contains 0.0440 M Ca2 and 0.0940 M Ag. If solid Na3PO4 is added to this mixture, which of the phosphate species would

Olenka [21]

Answer:

C. $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ will precipitate out first

the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining = 12.86%

Explanation:

Given that:

A solution contains:

$[Ca^{2+}] = 0.0440 \ M$

$[Ag^+] = 0.0940 \ M$

From the list of options , Let find the dissociation of $Ag_3PO_4$

$Ag_3PO_4 \to Ag^{3+} + PO_4^{3-}$

where;

Solubility product constant Ksp of $Ag_3PO_4$ is $8.89 \times 10^{-17}$

Thus;

$Ksp = [Ag^+]^3[PO_4^{3-}]$

replacing the known values in order to determine the unknown ; we have :

$8.89 \times 10 ^{-17} = (0.0940)^3[PO_4^{3-}]$

$\dfrac{8.89 \times 10 ^{-17}}{(0.0940)^3} = [PO_4^{3-}]$

$[PO_4^{3-}] =\dfrac{8.89 \times 10 ^{-17}}{(0.0940)^3}$

$[PO_4^{3-}] =1.07 \times 10^{-13}$

The dissociation of $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$

The solubility product constant of $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ is $2.07 \times 10^{-32}$

The dissociation of $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ is :

$Ca_3(PO_4)_2 \to 3Ca^{2+} + 2 PO_{4}^{3-}$

Thus;

$Ksp = [Ca^{2+}]^3 [PO_4^{3-}]^2$

$2.07 \times 10^{-33} = (0.0440)^3 [PO_4^{3-}]^2$

$\dfrac{2.07 \times 10^{-33} }{(0.0440)^3}= [PO_4^{3-}]^2$

$[PO_4^{3-}]^2 = \dfrac{2.07 \times 10^{-33} }{(0.0440)^3}$

$[PO_4^{3-}]^2 = 2.43 \times 10^{-29}$

$[PO_4^{3-}] = \sqrt{2.43 \times 10^{-29}$

$[PO_4^{3-}] =4.93 \times 10^{-15}$

Thus; the phosphate anion needed for precipitation is smaller i.e $4.93 \times 10^{-15}$ in $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ than in $Ag_3PO_4$ $1.07 \times 10^{-13}$

Therefore:

$Ca_3(PO_4)_2$ will precipitate out first

To determine the concentration of $[Ca^+]$ when the second cation starts to precipitate ; we have :

$Ksp = [Ca^{2+}]^3 [PO_4^{3-}]^2$

$2.07 \times 10^{-33} = [Ca^{2+}]^3 (1.07 \times 10^{-13})^2$

$[Ca^{2+}]^3 = \dfrac{2.07 \times 10^{-33} }{(1.07 \times 10^{-13})^2}$

$[Ca^{2+}]^3 =1.808 \times 10^{-7}$

$[Ca^{2+}] =\sqrt[3]{1.808 \times 10^{-7}}$

$[Ca^{2+}] =0.00566$

This implies that when the second cation starts to precipitate ; the concentration of $[Ca^{2+}]$ in the solution is 0.00566

Therefore;

the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining = concentration remaining/initial concentration × 100%

the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining = 0.00566/0.0440 × 100%

the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining = 0.1286 × 100%

the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining = 12.86%

I have my chemistry EOC tomorrow, and I need to know how to calculate the molar mass of a compound. Specifically ones set up lik

yuradex [85]

Answer:

357.475

Explanation:

First you need periodic table and you have to look for mass

Fe = 3 x 55.845 = 167.535

P = 2 x 30.97 = 61.94

o = 4 x 2 so 8 oxygen = 8 x 16 = 128

add all and you get 357.475

Describe the three steps of solution formation. be sure to include the details regarding the dissolving of the substance

Elza [17]

The three steps involve;

Step 1: Separation/expansion of the solute particles

Step 2: Separation/expansion of the solvent particles

Step 3; Combining the solute and solvent particles

The first two steps are usually endothermic. Step 3, nonetheless, can be either exothermic or endothermic and is significant in determining whether the dissolving process will be endothermic or exothermic.
