Answer:

[Ni(CN)4]2- square planar

[NiCl4]2- tetrahedral

Explanation:

For a four coordinate complex such as [Ni(CN)4]2- and [NiCl4]2-, we can decide its geometry by closely considering its magnetic properties. Both of the complexes are d8 complexes which could be found either in the tetrahedral or square planar crystal field depending on the nature of the ligand.

CN^- being a strong field ligand leads to the formation of a square planar diamagnetic d8 complex of Ni^2+. Similarly, Cl^- being a weak field ligand leads to the formation a a tetrahedral paramagnetic d8 complex of Ni^+ hence the answer given above.

Which of the following is a buffer system? Which of the following is a buffer system? H2CO3(aq) and KHCO3(aq) NaCl(aq) and NaOH(
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as an aqueous mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

In the systems:

H₂CO₃(aq) and KHCO₃(aq): Carbonic acid, H₂CO₃, is a weak acid that, in solution with its conjugate pair, HCO₃⁻ make a <em>buffer system.</em>

NaCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): NaCl is a salt and NaOH is a strong base. Thus, this system <em>is not </em> a buffer system.

H₂O(l) and HCl(aq): Water is a solvent and HCl a strong acid. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.

HCl(aq) and NaOH(aq): HCl is a strong acid and NaOH a strong base. This <em>is not </em>a buffer system.

NaCl(aq) and NaNO₃(aq): Both NaCl and NaNO₃ are salts and this system <em>is not </em>a buffer system.

What is the engine piston displacement in liters of an engine who’s displacement is listed as 430 in.²
sergeinik [125]

For an engine whose displacement is listed as 430 in.², the engine piston displacement in liters is mathematically given as

PD= 7.37 L  

<h3>What is the engine piston displacement in liters of an engine whose displacement is listed as 430 in.²?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the dimensional analysis method,\, we convert in to L is mathematically given as

l*(v/l)*l/v

Therefore,  piston displacement

PD=(450 in3) . (1 dm3 / 61.024 in3) . (1 L / 1 dm3)

PD= 7.37 L  

In conclusion, piston displacement

PD= 7.37 L

If 842 grams of sodium hydroxide reacts with 750.0 grams of aluminum, how many grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically
Phantasy [73]

548.55 grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically form.

Explanation:

Balanced equation for the reaction:

3 NaOH + Al ⇒ Al(OH)3 +3 Na

DATA GIVEN:

mass of NaOH = 842 grams, atomic mass =39.9 grams/mole

mass of Al = 750 grams, atomic mass = 26.9 grams/mole

aluminum hydroxide theoretical yield = ?

Moles of NaOH reacted

number of moles = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

putting the values in the equation

NaOH = \frac{842}{39.9}

           = 21.1 MOLES OF NaOH

Al = \frac{750}{26.9}

   = 27.8 moles

from the equation

 from 3 moles of NaOH 1 mole of Al(OH)3 is produced

21.1 moles of NaOH will react to give x moles of Al(OH)3

\frac{1}{3} = \frac{x}{21.1}

7.03 moles of Al(OH)3 is formed.

and

1 mole of Al(OH)3 is formed from 1 mole of Al in the reaction

so, 27.8 Moles will react to give give 27.8 moles of Al(OH)3 limiting reagent of the given reaction is NaOH

mass of Al(OH)3 =7.03 x 78 (atomic mass of Al(OH)3)

          = 548.55 grams

theoretical  yield from the given data is 548.55 grams
