A student does an experiment to determine the molar solubility of lead(II) bromide. She constructs a voltaic cell at 298 K consi

sting of 0.733 M lead nitrate solution and a lead electrode in the cathode compartment, and a saturated lead bromide solution and a lead electrode in the anode compartment. If the cell potential is measured to be 5.45×10-2 V, what is the molar solubility of lead bromide at 298 K determined in this experiment?

Answer:

The molar solubility of lead bromide at 298K is 0.010 mol/L.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we need to use the Nernst Equaiton:

E = E^{o} - \frac{0.0591}{n} log\frac{[ox]}{[red]}

E is the cell potential at a certain instant, E⁰ is the cell potential, n is the number of electrons involved in the redox reaction, [ox] is the concentration of the oxidated specie and [red] is the concentration of the reduced specie.

At equilibrium, E = 0, therefore:

E^{o}  = \frac{0.0591}{n} log \frac{[ox]}{[red]} \\\\log \frac{[ox]}{[red]} = \frac{nE^{o} }{0.0591} \\\\log[red] =  log[ox] -  \frac{nE^{o} }{0.0591}\\\\[red] = 10^{ log[ox] -  \frac{nE^{o} }{0.0591}} \\\\[red] = 10^{ log0.733 -  \frac{2x5.45x10^{-2}  }{0.0591}}\\\\

[red] = 0.010 M

The reduction will happen in the anode, therefore, the concentration of the reduced specie is equivalent to the molar solubility of lead bromide.

Answer: The moles of melatonin are 0.000043

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

Given mass of melatonin = 0.01 g

Molar mass of melatonin (C_{13}H_{16}N_2O_2) = 232.28 g/mol

\text{Number of moles of melatonin}=\frac{0.01 g}{232.28g/mol}=0.000043mol

Thus the moles of melatonin in 0.01 g are 0.000043

In salt, what is the nature of the bond between sodium and chlorine? in salt, what is the nature of the bond between sodium and
kifflom [539]

A chemical bond that involves the transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal and thus forms ions and the atoms in the molecule are attracted towards each other through electrostatic force of attraction are said be ionic bond. In short, the bond formed between the two oppositely charged ions.

In salt, the compound formed between sodium and chlorine is sodium chloride having molecular formula NaCl where sodium is a metal and chlorine is the non-metal. The formation of the compound takes place by transfer of an electron from sodium thus forming a cation of formula Na^{+} to chlorine which gains electron and thus results in an anion formation having formula Cl^{-}. The force of attraction between these oppositely charged ions that helds them together and results in formation of NaCl compound is electrostatic force of attraction.

Hence in salt, the nature of bond between sodium and chlorine is ionic.

Tin has many possible isotopes. Three of these isotopes are 116sn, 120sn, and 126sn. What is the mass number of each? How many p
Aneli [31]

Isotopes are defined as atoms of same element with different mass number and same atomic number.

Here, atomic number is equal to number of protons and number of electrons, it is denoted by symbol Z thus,

Z=n_{e}=n_{p}

and, mass number is equal to sum of number of protons and neutrons, it is denoted by symbol A thus,

A=n_{p}+n_{n}

The three isotopes of tin are given, Sn-116, Sn-120 and Sn-126, mass number for these three isotopes is 116, 120 and 126 respectively. Since, they are isotopes thus, atomic number remains the same that is 50.

Since, Z=n_{e}=n_{p} thus, number of protons and electrons will be 50.

For Sn-116,

A=n_{p}+n_{n}

Or,

116=50+n_{n}

Or,

n_{n}=116-50=66

For Sn-120,

n_{n}=120-50=70

For Sn-126,

n_{n}=126-50=76

Therefore, mass number, number of protons, electrons and neutrons in all three isotopes are:

Sn-116:

Mass number= 116

Protons=50

neutrons=66

electrons=50

Sn-120:

Protons=50

neutrons=70

electrons=50

Sn-126:

Protons=50

neutrons=76

electrons=50

Which gas makes your voice deeper or has the opposite effect on you than helium when you inhale it.
slega [8]
The correct answer is Sulfur Hexafluoride
it’s an inert gas that is known to be six times heavier than the air we breathe. While Helium being lighter makes our voice higher, SF6 makes our voice deeper. The sound travels slower in denser gases which is why our voice will come out deeper and rather slow.
