The formation constant* of [M(CN) 4 ]2− is 7.70 × 10 16 , where M is a generic metal. A 0.150 mole quantity of M(NO3)2 is added

to a liter of 0.820 M NaCN solution. What is the concentration of M2+ ions at equilibrium?

Answer:

0 M.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing reaction is:

M(NO_3)_2+NaCN\leftrightarrow [M(CN)_4]^{-2}+NaNO_3

Nonetheless, it only matters the reaction forming the given complex:

M^{+2}+4CN^-\leftrightarrow [M(CN)_4]^{-2}

In such a way, the formation constant turns out:

K_F=\frac{[[M(CN)_4]^{-2}]_{eq}}{[M^{+2}]_{eq}[CN^{-}]_{eq}^4}

Now, one could assume that the initial concentrations of the ions equals the original compounds concentrations:

[M^{+2}]_0=0.150M;[CN^-]_0=0.820M

In such a way, we modify the formation constant in terms of the change x due to the reaction progress:

K_F=\frac{x}{(0.150-x)(0.820-x)^4}=7.70x10^{16}

Now, solving for x:

x_1=0.15M\\x_2=0.82M

The feasible solution is 0.15M which will lead to an equilibrium concentration of M⁺² of 0M

[M^{+2}]_{eq}=0.15M-0.15M=0M

This fact has sense since the formation constant is very large.

Best regards.

What is the name of the ionic compound AlBr3?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer: Correct name will be is aluminum bromide

Explanation:

In a molecular formula ,AlBr_3

Aluminium atoms present = 1  

Bromine atoms present = 3

Charge on aluminium is +3 and charge on bromine is -1.

While naming:

  • Name of the cation is written first. Simple name of the element is written
  • After name of cation name of an anions written with suffix 'ide' in the end.

So, the name of AlBr_3 will be aluminium bromide.

Why is oxygen diflouride a gas at room temperature?
atroni [7]

Answer:

Oxygen is a simple molecular structure, where individual oxygen atoms are bonded to each other by strong covalent bonds. Hence, a low amount of energy is required to overcome these weak forces and oxygen has a low boiling point. Therefore, at room temperature, oxygen is a gas. Oxygen difluoride is a colorless gas, condensable to a pale yellow liquid, with a slightly irritating odor. It is the most stable of the compounds of fluorine and oxygen, which include O,F,, O,F, and 0,F2 but nevertheless it is a strong oxidizing and fluorinating agent. Oxygen Difluoride is a colorless gas or a yellowish-brown liquid with a foul odor. Just to finally link Joseph's answer to the question, oxygen difluoride will thus change from liquid to solid state when chilled from -220°c to -230°c. The boiling point of oxygen is -182.96 degrees Celsius (under 1 standard atmosphere). This means at temperatures below that point, oxygen is a solid or a liquid, and at temperatures above that point, oxygen is a gas. So at -183 degrees Celsius, oxygen is a liquid.
