Is the solution containing 0.20 M Pb2 and 0.10 M Cl (Ksp 1.6x105) a) saturated, b) unsaturated, c) at equilibrium, d) none of th

raketka [301]

Answer : The correct option is, (b) unsaturated

Explanation :

Ionic product : It is defined as the product of the concentrations of the ions present in solution raised to the same power by its stoichiometric coefficient in a solution of a salt. This takes place at any concentration. The ionic product is represented as, Q.

Solubility product constant : It is defined as the product of the concentration of the ions present in a solution raised to the power by its stoichiometric coefficient in a solution of a salt. This takes place at equilibrium only. The solubility product constant is represented as, $K__{sp}$ .

Now we have to calculate the ionic product of given solution.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightarrow Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

The expression of ionic product will be,

$Q=[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2$

$Q=(0.20)\times (0.10)^2$

$Q=0.002$

The ionic product of solution is, 0.002

There are three cases for the solubility :

When $Q$ this means that the solution is unsaturated solution and more solid will be dissolve.

When $Q=k_{sp}$ this means that the solution is saturated solution.

When $Q>k_{sp}$ this means that the solution is supersaturated solution and solid will be precipitate.

From this we conclude that the value of $k_{sp}=1.6\times 10^5$ is greater than the ionic product that means the solution is unsaturated solution and more solid will be dissolve.

Hence, the correct option is, (b) unsaturated

The element californium (cf) sells for $1000 per µg. assuming 6.02 x 1023 atoms of cf have a mass of 251 grams, how many atoms o

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:- $2.40*10^1^0atoms$

Solution:- It is a simple unit conversion problem. We could solve this using dimensional analysis.

We know that, 1 US dollar = 100 cents

1 cent = 1 US penny

So, 1 US dollar = 100 US pennies

$1g=10^6\mu g$

Let's make the set up starting with 1 penny as:

$1penny(\frac{$1}{100pennies})(\frac{1\mu g}{$1000})(\frac{1g}{10^6\mu g})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3atoms}{251g})$

= $2.40*10^1^0atoms$

Therefore, we can bye $2.40*10^1^0atoms$ of Cf in one US penny.

Why is large-scale nuclear fission a rare phenomenon on Earth? A. There isn't enough energy to start a chain reaction in nature.

siniylev [52]

The answer is; C

The radioisotopes in the interior of the earth are not in pure form and have many embedded impurities and are interspersed. Therefore when a neutron is released by a decaying atom, its chances of hitting another radioisotope atom (to continue the chain reaction) are lower than in a manmade nuclear reactor. This way, the radioactive chain reaction in the earth’s interior is not well sustained.
