Calculate the number of mg of Mn2+ left
1 answer:
Answer:
1.930 * 10⁻⁹ mg of Mn⁺² are left unprecipitated.
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place is:
Mn⁺² + S⁻² ⇄ MnS(s)
ksp = [Mn⁺²] [S⁻²]
If the pksp of MnS is 13.500, then the ksp is:
From the problem we know that [S⁻²] = 0.0900 M
We use the ksp to calculate [Mn⁺²]:
3.1623*10⁻¹⁴= [Mn⁺²] * 0.0900 M
[Mn⁺²] = 3.514 * 10⁻¹³ M.
Now we can calculate the mass of Mn⁺², using the volume, concentration and atomic weight. Thus the mass of Mn⁺² left unprecipitated is:
3.514 * 10⁻¹³ M * 0.1 L * 54.94 g/mol = 1.930 * 10⁻¹² g = 1.930 * 10⁻⁹ mg.

A stable arrangement of eight valence electrons : ³⁵Cl⁻¹
<h3>Further explanation</h3>Chlorine is a halogen gas, located in group 17, p block
Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and an atomic mass of 35
Electron configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁵
If we look at the electron configuration, then Cl will bind 1 more electron so that the configuration is stable like Argon (atomic number 18)
So by binding this one electron, chlorine forms negative ions (anions)
³⁵Cl⁻¹
B. Cl⁻² binds 2 electrons, exceeding the octet rule
C. Cl⁺¹, releases 1 electron, remains unstable
D. Cl, the neutral form of Cl, is still unstable with a 7-electron valence configuration
