Based on solubility rules what ions in water might interfere with the analysis of calcium ions by precipitation of calcium carbo
Pavlova-9 [17]
First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:

1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
    CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

2. Precipitation
    Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O

The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.

Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.

What is the wavelength of a photon with an energy of 3.50 x 10^-19 J ?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

λ = 5.68×10⁻⁷ m

Explanation:

Given data:

Energy of photon = 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

Wavelength of photon = ?

Solution:

E = hc/λ

h = planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js

c = 3×10⁸ m/s

Now we will put the values in formula.

3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s/ λ

λ =  6.63×10⁻³⁴ Js × 3×10⁸ m/s / 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ =  19.89×10⁻²⁶ J.m / 3.50 ×10⁻¹⁹ J

λ = 5.68×10⁻⁷ m

Is a cube of salt being crushed before being stirred into water a physical or chemical change
Olin [163]
By crushing the salt, you are performing a physical change because you aren't altering the chemical makeup of the salt, just the physical form. Hope this helps! :)
