T½=18.72days
therefore t¾=18.72+½ of 18.72
we have 18.72+9.36=28.08days

Calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2, is an ionic compound with a solubility product constant, Ksp, of 6.5×10–6. Calculate the solubility
kari74 [83]

Answer: The solubility of this compound in pure water is 0.012 M

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as K_{sp}

The equation for the ionization of the  is given as:

Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2OH^-  

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of  Ca(OH)_2 gives 1 mole of Ca^{2+} and 2 mole of OH^-

When the solubility of  Ca(OH)_2 is S moles/liter, then the solubility of Ca^{2+}  will be S moles\liter and solubility of OH^- will be 2S moles/liter.

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^{-}]^2

6.5\times 10^{-6}=[S][2S]^2

S=0.012M

Thus solubility of this compound in pure water is 0.012 M

Which statement refers to the quantum mechanical model? A) Electrons move in a circular path about the nucleus. B) Electrons can
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Electrons are in "orbitals", regions of space where there is high probability of being found.

Explanation:

The Wave mechanical model of the atom does not restrict the electrons to certain energy levels only as in the Bohr's model, instead it describes a region around the nucleus called an orbital, where there is a high probability of finding an electron with a certain amount of energy.

Each energy level is composed of one or more orbitals and the distribution of electrons around the nucleus is determined by the number and kind of energy levels that are occupied.
