Answer:

<u>Oxidation state of Mn = +4</u>

Explanation:

Atomic mass of Mn = 55g/mol

From Faraday's law of electrolysis,

Electrochemical equivalent = \frac{mass}{charge}

i.e Z = \frac{m}{Q} = \frac{0.225g}{1580C} = 0.0001424 g/C

But Equivalent weight, E = atomic mass ÷ valency  = Z × 96,485

⇒ \frac{55}{valency} = 0.0001424 × 96,485

<u>∴ Valency of Mn = +4</u>

denis23 [38]

Answer:

Volume of CHCl_3   = 15.31 mL

Volume of CHBr_3 = 4.69 mL

Explanation:

Given that:

the density of the mixture = 1.82 g/mL

From the density of the pure samples

The density of CHCl_3 = 1.492 g/mL

The density of CHBr_3 = 2.890 g/mL

The total volume of the liquid mixture = 20.0 mL

Suppose the volume of  CHCl_3 = P ml

and the volume of CHBr_3 = Q ml

the sum of their volumes should be equal to the total volume of the mixture

P \ ml + Q \ ml = 20 ml  ----- (1)

However, we know that Density = mass/volume

∴ mass = density × volume

The equation can now be expressed as:

\mathtt{(Density \ of  \ CHCl_3 \times Vol. \ of  \ CHCl_3 ) + (Density  \  of \  CHBr_3  \times \ volume \ of \ CHBr_3)} = \mathtt{ (Density  \ of \ mixture \times volume \ of \ the \ mixture)}

1.492 g/mL × P mL + 2.890 g/mL × Q mL = 1.82 g/mL × 20 mL  ---- (2)

From equation (1) ;

let Q = 20 - P

The replace the value of P into equation (2)

1.492 g/mL × P mL + 2.890g/mL × (20 - P) mL = 1.82 g/mL × 20 mL

1.492 P g + 57.8g - 2.890 P g =  36.4g

1.492 P g - 2.890 P g = 36.4g - 57.8g

-1.398 P g = -21.4g

P = -21.4g/-1.398g

P = 15.31 mL

Q = 20 - P

Q = (20 - 15.31) mL

Q = 4.69 mL

∴

Volume of CHCl_3   = 15.31 mL

Volume of CHBr_3 = 4.69 mL

How far apart must two point charges of 75.0 nC (typical of static electricity) be to have a force of 1.00 N between them? (answ
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

7.12 mm

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kqq'/r².................... Equation 1

Where F = force, k = proportionality constant, q and q' = The two point charges, r = distance between the two charges.

Make r the subject of the equation,

r = √(kqq'/F).......................... Equation 2

Given: q = q' = 75.0 nC = 75×10⁻⁹ C, F = 1.00 N

Constant: k = 9.0×10⁹ Nm²/C².

Substitute into equation 2

r = √[ (75×10⁻⁹ )²9.0×10⁹/1]

r = 75×10⁻⁹.√(9.0×10⁹)

r = (75×10⁻⁹)(9.49×10⁴)

r = 711.75×10⁻⁵

r = 7.12×10⁻³ m

r = 7.12 mm

Hence the distance between the point charge = 7.12 mm

How many moles of Cu(OH)2 are soluble in 1L of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) when the pH is 8.23?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

4.96E-8 moles of Cu(OH)2

Explanation:

Kps es the constant referring to how much a substance can be dissolved in water. Using Kps, it is possible to know the concentration of weak electrolytes. Then, pKps is the minus logarithm of Kps.

Now, we know that sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong electrolyte, who is completely dissolved in water. Therefore the pH depends only on OH concentration originating from NaOH. Let us to figure out how much is that OH concentration.

pH= -log[H]\\pH= -log (\frac{kw}{[OH]})

8.23 = - log(\frac{Kw}{[OH]} \\10^{-8.23} = Kw/[OH]\\ [OH] = Kw/10^{-8.23}

[OH]=1.69E-6

This concentration of OH affects the disociation of Cu(OH)2. Let us see the dissociation reaction:

Cu(OH)_2 -> Cu^{2+} + 2OH^-

In the equilibrum, exist a concentration of OH already, that we knew, and it will be added that from dissociation, called "s":

The expression for Kps is:

Kps= [Cu^{2+}] [OH]^2

The moles of (CuOH)2 soluble are limitated for the concentration of OH present, according to the next equation.

Kps= s*(2s+1.69E-6)^2

"s" is the soluble quantity of Cu(OH)2.

The solution for this third grade equation is s=4.96E-8 mol/L

Now, let us calculate the moles in 1 L:

moles Cu(OH)_2 = 4.96E-8 mol/L * 1 L = 4.96E-8 moles
