<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of NH_3 required will be 0.285 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of NiC_2O_4, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Moles of NiC_2O_4 = 0.016 moles

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molarity of }NiC_2O_4=\frac{0.016mol}{1L}=0.016M

For the given chemical equations:

NiC_2O_4(s)\rightleftharpoons Ni^{2+}(aq.)+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_{sp}=4.0\times 10^{-10}

Ni^{2+}(aq.)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_f=1.2\times 10^9

Net equation: NiC_2O_4(s)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K=?

To calculate the equilibrium constant, K for above equation, we get:

K=K_{sp}\times K_f\\K=(4.0\times 10^{-10})\times (1.2\times 10^9)=0.48

The expression for equilibrium constant of above equation is:

K=\frac{[C_2O_4^{2-}][[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]}{[NiC_2O_4][NH_3]^6}

As, NiC_2O_4 is a solid, so its activity is taken as 1 and so for C_2O_4^{2-}

We are given:

[[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]=0.016M

Putting values in above equations, we get:

0.48=\frac{0.016}{[NH_3]^6}}

[NH_3]=0.285M

Hence, the concentration of NH_3 required will be 0.285 M.

9A. A sample of hydrogen at 1.56 atm had it's pressure decreased to 0.73
densk [106]

Answer:

351.43mL

Explanation:

To calculate the original volume of hydrogen gas in this question, the Boyle's law equation will be used. Boyle's law equation is:

P1V1 = P2V2

Where; P1 = initial pressure

V1 = initial volume

P2 = final pressure

V2 = final volume

According to this question, the P1= 1.56atm, V1 = ?, P2 = 0.73atm, V2 = 751mL

Hence;

P1V1 = P2V2

1.56 × V1 = 0.73 × 751

1.56 V1 = 548.23

V1 = 548.23/1.56

V1 = 351.43mL

Therefore, the original volume of hydrogen gas is 351.43 mL.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 8.75 grams of sodium chloride in enough volume of water to produce 112.0 grams of the NaCl
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer : The percent by mass of the solution is 7.81 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of NaCl = 8.75 g

Mass of solution = 112.0 g

Now we have to determine the percent by mass of the solution.

\text{Mass percent}=\frac{\text{Mass of NaCl}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 100

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass percent}=\frac{8.75g}{112.0g}\times 100=7.81\%

Therefore, the percent by mass of the solution is 7.81 %

Is a planar carbon "backbone" possible for propane? Explain.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Cyclopropane has a planar carbon back bone while propane does not

Explanation:

We have to recognize that in straight chain saturated organic compounds, carbon atoms have a tetrahedral geometry. Each carbon atom is bonded to four other atoms.

However, carbon atoms in cyclic compounds are also sp3 hybridized with each carbon bonded to only four other atoms but the ring system is highly strained.

Cyclopropane is a necessarily planar molecule with a bond angle that is far less than the expected tetrahedral bond angle due to strain in the molecule. Hence, the carbon atoms may have have a "planar backbone".

What occurs when a solid substance dissolves into a liquid? 1 It stays solid and sinks to the bottom of the liquid substance. 2
katrin [286]

Explanation:

When a solid substance is dissolved in a liquid such as water, the intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules in the solid substance are overcome and they exist as ions in the solution. Hence the answer is 2.
