Answer:

Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ → Ca(OH)₂(s)

Explanation:

In chemistry, the net ionic equation is a way to write a chemical reaction whereas you write only the ions that are involved in the reaction.

When calcium chloride, CaCl₂ reacts with sodium hydroxide, NaOH to produce Ca(OH)₂ the only ions involved in the reaction are Ca²⁺ and OH⁻, thus, the balanced net ionic equation is:

<em>Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ → Ca(OH)₂(s)</em>

<em>Cl⁻ and Na⁺ are not involved in the reaction and you don't have to write them.</em>

Why are most organic compounds nonconducting and insoluble in water?

maksim [4K]

I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are the second and the last options. Organic compounds are nonducting and insoluble in water because of the bonds that these compounds contain. Most organic compounds don't dissolve in water because they are nonpolar. They don't conduct electricity because they are covalent, not ionic.

Using the Bohr model, determine the energy in joules of the photon produced when an electron in a Li2+ ion moves from the orbit

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

By the Bohr model, the electrons surround the nucleus of the atom in shells or levels of energy. Each one has it's energy, and the electron doesn't fall to the nucleus because it can reach another level of energy, and then return to its level.

When the electrons go to another level, it absorbs energy, and then, when return, this energy is released, as a photon (generally as luminous energy). The value of the energy can be calculated by:

E = hc/λ

Where h is the Planck constant (6.626x10⁻³⁴ J.s), c is the light speed (3.00x10⁸ m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the photon.

The wavelength can be calculated by:

1/λ = R*(1/nf² - 1/ni²)

Where R is the Rydberg constant (1.097x10⁷ m⁻¹), nf is the final orbit, and ni the initial orbit. So:

1/λ = 1.097x10⁷ *(1/1² - 1/2²)

1/λ = 8.227x10⁶

λ = 1.215x10⁻⁷ m

So, the energy is:

E = (6.626x10⁻³⁴ * 3.00x10⁸)/(1.215x10⁻⁷)

E = 1.64x10⁻¹⁸ J

Solid NaBr is slowly added to a solution that is 0.073 M in Cu+ and 0.073 M in Ag+.Which compound will begin to precipitate firs

saul85 [17]

Answer :

AgBr should precipitate first.

The concentration of $Ag^+$ when CuBr just begins to precipitate is, $1.34\times 10^{-6}M$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains is, 0.0018 %

Explanation :

$K_{sp}$ for CuBr is $4.2\times 10^{-8}$

$K_{sp}$ for AgBr is $7.7\times 10^{-13}$

As we know that these two salts would both dissociate in the same way. So, we can say that as the Ksp value of AgBr has a smaller than CuBr then AgBr should precipitate first.

Now we have to calculate the concentration of bromide ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$CuBr\rightleftharpoons Cu^++Br^-$
