Answer:

Option E)

  • 6.7\times 10^{-5}M

Explanation:

<u />

<u>1. Write the solubility equation:</u>

  • CaCO₃(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻

<u>2. Write the concentrations below the equation:</u>

  • CaCO₃(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻

             A - s               s            s

<u>3. Write the Ksp equation:</u>

  • Ksp = [Ca²⁺] . [CO₃²⁻]       ↔ the solid substances do not appear
  • Ksp = s × s
  • 4.5 × 10⁻⁹ = s²

<u>4. Solve the equation:</u>

<u />

       s=\sqrt{4.5\times 10^{-9}M^2}=6.7\times 10^{-5}M

A solution is prepared by mixing 0.10 of 0.12 M sodium chloride with 0.23 L of a 0.18 M magnesium chloride solution. What is the
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

pCl⁻ = 0.54

Explanation:

First we <u>calculate how many Cl⁻ moles are coming from each substance</u>, using the <em>given volumes and concentrations</em>:

  • 0.12 M NaCl * 0.10 L = 0.012 mol NaCl = 0.012 mol Cl⁻
  • 0.18 M MgCl₂ * 0.23 L = 0.0414 mol MgCl₂ = (0.0414 * 2) 0.0828 mol Cl⁻

The final volume of the mixture is = 0.10 L + 0.23 L = 0.33 L

Now we <u>calculate [Cl⁻]</u>, using the<em> total number of Cl⁻ moles and the final volume:</em>

  • [Cl⁻] = (0.012 mol + 0.0828 mol) / 0.33 L = 0.29 M

Finally we <u>calculate the pCl⁻ of the resulting solution</u>:

  • pCl⁻ = -log[Cl⁻]
  • pCl⁻ = 0.54

The _____ forms of the electron carriers nad+/nadh and fadh/fadh2 have high potential energy.
Sergeu [11.5K]
The reduced forms of the electron carries NAD+ / NADH and FADH / FADH2 have high potential energy.

- NAD& FAD used to donate electrons as a reducing agent, they receive electrons from other molecules and then became reduced.

-FAD is called flow in adenine dinucleotide, it is a redox cofactor and it is in many important enzymatic reactions in metabolism.

Based on the name, which substance is a covalent compound?
jek_recluse [69]
Compounds that has two elements on the formula can be bonded by ionic or covalent bond. If the compound is a metal and a non-metal then it will be ionic bonding. However, when it involves two non-metals, then it will have covalent bonding.

What is the coefficient for iodide ions (I-) when the equation is balanced?<br>​
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

When the following redox equation is balanced with smallest whole number coefficients, the coefficient for the iodide ion will be __6__.

Explanation:

From the redox equation, we can see that NO₃⁻ is reduced to NO (from oxidation state +5 to +2), whereas I⁻ is oxidized to I₂ (from oxidation state -1 to 0). The half reactions are balanced with H⁺ (acidic solution), as follows:

Reduction :        2 x (NO₃⁻(aq) + 3 e-  + 4 H⁺ → NO(g) + 2 H₂O)

Oxidation :                                   3 x (2 I⁻(aq) → I₂(s) + 2 e-)

                      ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Total equation: 6 I⁻(aq) + 2 NO₃⁻(aq)+ 8 H⁺ → 3 I₂(s) + 2 NO(g) + 4 H₂O

That is the redox equation with the smallest whole number coefficients.

Accordin to this, the coefficient for the iodide ion (I⁻) is: 6.
