Answer: MgSO_4.7H_2O

Explanation:

MgSO_4 is an ionic compound because aluminium element is a metal and hydrogen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written in case of SO_4^{2-} is '-ate'.

Hence, the name of MgSO_4 is magnesium sulphate.

The water of crystallization is written as hydrate with the number of water molecules. As the name is heptahydrate, that means 7 water molecules are present.

Therefore, the correct answer is MgSO_4.7H_2O

Which two statements describe disadvantages of selective breeding? A. Desirable traits that are not selected may disappear in a
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

B and C

Explanation:

Selective breeding is a procedure that involves the purposeful breeding of selected parents in order to give rise to offsprings with desired traits. Selective breeding procedure has its own advantages, which includes the ability to produce more animal products such as milk, meat etc, however, it has disadvantages.

The disadvantages include that:

- Selectively bred animals are more likely to have some health problem

- Some desirable traits become more common in a population.

As a chemist for an agricultural products company, you have just developed a new herbicide,"Herbigon," that you think has the po
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

pH = 2.03

Explanation:

The pH can be calculated using the following equation:

pH = -log [H_{3}O^{+}]  (1)

The concentration of H₃O⁺ is calculated using the dissociation constant of the next reaction:

CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇄  CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺    

   1.00 M    

K_{a} = \frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}][H_{3}O^{+}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}

Solving the above equation for H₃O⁺, we have:    

[H_{3}O^{+}] = \frac{Ka*[CH_{3}COOH]}{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}    (2)    

The dissociation constant is equal to:    

pKa = -log(Ka) \rightarrow Ka = 10^{-pKa} = 10^{-4.76} = 1.74 \cdot 10^{-5}    

Now, by solving the equation of the solubility product for Herbigon, we can find [CH₃COO⁻]:

CH₃COOX  ⇄  CH₃COO⁻ +  X⁺  

                                             5.00x10⁻³ M

K_{sp} = [CH_{3}COO^{-}][X^{+}]

[CH_{3}COO^{-}] = \frac{K_{sp}}{[X^{+}]} = \frac{9.40 \cdot 10^{-6}}{5.00 \cdot 10^{-3}} = 1.88 \cdot 10^{-3} M

By entering the values of [CH₃COO⁻] and Ka, into equation (2) we can calculate [H₃O⁺]:

[H_{3}O^{+}] = \frac{1.74 \cdot 10^{-5}*[1.00]}{[1.88 \cdot 10^{-3}]} = 9.26 \cdot 10^{-3} M

Hence, the pH is:

pH = -log [H_{3}O^{+}] = -log [9.26 \cdot 10^{-3}] = 2.03

Therefore, the pH must be 2.03 to yield a solution in which the concentration of X⁺ is 5.00x10⁻³M.

I hope it helps you!
