Answer:

Option d) X2O3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

The electronic configuration of the element X => [He]3s23p1

Now, let us write the electronic configuration of oxygen. This is given below:

O(8) => 1s2 2s2 2p4

Considering the electronic configuration of the element X, we can the element has 3 electrons in the outermost shell. Oxygen on the other hand has 2 electrons in the outermost shell. During bonding, there will be exchange of ion as shown below:

X³ + O²¯—> X2O3

So, the formula of the most probable ionic compound that this element will form with O is X2O3

The equilibrium constant is given for two of the reactions below. Determine the value of the missing equilibrium constant. 2A(g)
monitta

Answer:

The value of the missing equilibrium constant ( of the first equation) is 1.72

Explanation:

First equation: 2A + B ↔ A2B   Kc = TO BE DETERMINED

 ⇒ The equilibrium expression for this equation is written as: [A2B]/[A]²[B]

Second equation: A2B + B ↔ A2B2   Kc= 16.4

⇒ The equilibrium expression is written as: [A2B2]/[A2B][B]

Third equation:  2A + 2B ↔ A2B2     Kc = 28.2

⇒ The equilibrium expression is written as: [A2B2]/ [A]²[B]²

If we add the first to the second equation

2A + B + B ↔ A2B2   the equilibrium constant Kc will be X(16.4)

But the sum of these 2 equations, is the same as the third equation ( 2A + 2B ↔ A2B2)   with Kc = 28.2

So this means: 28.2 = X(16.4)

or X = 28.2/16.4

X = 1.72

with X = Kc of the first equation

The value of the missing equilibrium constant ( of the first equation) is 1.72

An industrial chemist studying bleaching and sterilizing prepares several hypoclorite buffers.
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

pH is 7.60

Explanation:

Let's think the equations:

HClO + H₂O  ⇄  ClO⁻  +  H₃O⁺

As every weak acid, we make an equilbrium

The salt is dissociated in solution

NaClO → Na⁺  +  ClO⁻

                  HClO    +    H₂O    ⇄    ClO⁻    +     H₃O⁺

Initially       0.3m                            0.35m

We have the moles of acid, and the moles of conjugate base.

Reacts          x                                    X                  X

Some amount has reacted, so I obtained (in equilibrium) the moles of base + that amount, and the same amount for H₃O⁺ (ratio is 1:1)

HClO    +    H₂O    ⇄    ClO⁻    +     H₃O⁺

0.3 - x                        0.35 + x           x

Let's make the expression for Ka

Ka = [ClO⁻] . [H₃O⁺]  /  [HClO]

(we don't add water, because it is included in Ka)

2.9x10⁻⁸ = (0.35+x).x  / (0.3-x)

Ka is in order of 10⁻⁸, I can assume that 0.3-x is 0.3  and 0.35 +x =0.3

2.9x10⁻⁸ = (0.35)x  / (0.3)

(2.9x10⁻⁸ .  0.3) /0.35 = x

2.48x10⁻⁸ = x

This is [H₃O⁺]

For pH = - log [H₃O⁺]

pH = 7.60
