.....to obey the law of conservation of mass.
Carbon has 6 protons and boron only has 5
Ability to adapt to their environment?? there isn't much context to the question /:
Answer:
See image attached
Explanation:
The hydroxide ion concentration can easily be calculated from the concentration of the metal hydroxide solutions given as shown in the solution attached. The pH can now be obtained from there using pH+pOH=14. The pH value is always greater than the the pOH value as shown in the solution to the problems attached.
Question (c) contains incorrect data that cannot be used to calculate the required parameters.
First you figure out how many grams of sulfur has been used.
2.080g - 1.659g = 0.421g of S used
Now change all of your grams to mols.
1.659g of Cu / 63.546g/mol = 0.02611mol of Cu
0.421g of S / 32.065g/mol = 0.01313 mol of S
From this you can see that S has less so we divide both numbers by the number of moles of S so we can get a ratio of S to Cu.
0.01313/0.01313 = 1 for S
0.02611/0.01313 = 2 for Cu
So the empirical formula would be Cu2S or copper sulfide.
