What is an atom? how can we predict it?

1 answer:

5 0

An atom is the what makes up elements. It is made up of positive particles (protons), negative particles (electrons), and neutrons (no charged particles).

Protons and neutrons are in the center of the atom while electrons hover around.

You cannot predict an atom. This is because it is not anything to guess about -if you know what I mean.

Happy to help!

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%

An unknown amount of acid can often be determined by adding an excess of base and then back-titrating the excess. A 0.3471−g sam

MAXImum [283]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of mixture = 0.3471 g

As the mixture contains oxalic acid and benzoic acid. So, oxalic acid will have two protons and benzoic acid has one proton.

This means oxalic acid will react with 2 moles of NaOH and benzoic acid will react with 1 mole of NaOH.

Hence, moles of NaOH in 97 ml = $\frac{0.1090 \times 97}{1000}$

= $10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol$

Moles of HCl in 21.00 ml = $\frac{0.2060 \times 21}{1000}$

= $4.326 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

Therefore, total moles of NaOH that reacted are as follows.

$10.573 \times 10^{-3} mol$ - $4.326 \times 10^{-3} mol$

= $6.247 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

So, total 3 mole of NaOH will react with 1 mole of mixture. Therefore, number of moles of NaOH reacted with benzoic acid is as follows.

$\frac{6.247 \times 10^{-3}}{3}$

= $2.082 \times 10^{-3}$ mol

Since, molar mass of NaOH is 40 g/mol. Therefore, calculate the mass of NaOH as follows.

$2.082 \times 10^{-3} mol \times 40 g/mol$

= $83.293 \times 10^{-3}$ g

= 0.0832 g

Whereas molar mass of benzoic acid is 122 g/mol.

Therefore, 40 g NaOH = 122 g benzoic acid

So, 0.0832 g NaOH = $\frac{122 g}{40 g} \times 0.0832 g$

= 0.253 g

Hence, calculate the % mass of benzoic acid as follows.

$\frac{0.253 g}{0.3471 g} \times 100$

= 73.10%

Thus, we can conclude that mass % of benzoic acid is 73.10%.
