Answer is: n<span>o, because the ion product is less than the Ksp of lead iodide. </span>

Chemical dissociation 1: KI(s) → K⁺(aq) + I⁻(aq).
Chemical dissociation 2: Pb(NO₃)₂(s) → Pb²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq).
Chemical reaction: Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq) → PbI₂(s).
Ksp(PbI₂) = 7.1·10⁻⁹.
V = 500 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0.5 L.
c(KI) = c(I⁻) = 0.0025 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(I⁻) = 0.005 M.
c(Pb(NO₃)₂) = c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00004 mol ÷ 0.5 L.
c(Pb²⁺) = 0.00008 M.
Q = c(Pb²⁺) · c(I⁻)².
Q = 8·10⁻⁵ M · (5·10⁻³ M)².
Q = 2·10⁻⁹; <span> the ion product.</span>

Calculate the Empirical Formula for the following compound:<br> 0.300 mol of S and 0.900 mole of O.
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf SO_3}}

Explanation:

An empirical formula shows the smallest whole-number ratio of the atoms in a compound.

So, we must calculate this ratio. Since we are given the amounts of the elements in moles, we can do this in just 2 steps.

<h3>1. Divide </h3>

The first step is division. We divide the amount of moles for both elements by the <u>smallest amount of moles</u>.

There are 0.300 moles of sulfur and 0.900 moles of oxygen. 0.300 is smaller, so we divide both amounts by 0.300

  • Sulfur: 0.300/0.300= 1
  • Oxygen: 0.900/0.300= 3

<h3>2. Write Empirical Formula</h3>

The next step is writing the formula. We use the numbers we just found as the subscripts. These numbers go after the element's symbol in the formula. Remember sulfur is S and there is 1 mole and oxygen is O and there are 3 moles.

  • S₁O₃

This formula is technically correct, but we typically remove subscripts of 1 because no subscript implies 1 representative unit.

  • SO₃

\bold {The \  empirical \ formula \ for \ the \  compound \ is  \ SO_3}}

Which is more prevalent in the food we eat: carbon-12 or carbon-14?
Sav [38]
I think the more prevalent in the food we eat is Carbon-12 which is present in Most of the food we ingest. Both carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes of carbon, they differ in the number of neutrons in each atom. Because of the different number of neutrons, carbon-12 and carbon-14 differ with respect to radioactivity. Carbon-12 is a stable isotope but carbon-14 undergoes radioactive decay.

What is a chemical change?
ipn [44]

A chemical change, also known as a chemical reaction, is a process in which one or more substances are altered into one or more new and different substances. In other words, a chemical change is a chemical reaction involving the rearrangement of atoms.

Hope this helps! ;)

All mixtures can be separated by physical processes. true or false
DaniilM [7]
<span>True. In chemistry, mixtures are two (or more) substances mixed together but not combined chemically. This means there are no chemical bonds that have formed between the substances. As such, they can be separated with physical processes.</span>
