A student wishes to calculate the experimental value of Ksp for AgI. S/he follows the procedure in Part 3 and finds Ecell to be

0.839 V. S/he does not perform Part 2; instead, s/he uses the theoretical slope of the Nernst plot for an Ag/Ag+ concentration cell, as instructed by her/his TA; this value is −0.0591 V. (a) What is the concentration of Ag+(aq) in the saturated solution of AgI (i.e., [Ag+ ]dilute)? ([Ag+ ]conc = 1.0 ✕ 10−1 M.) M (b) Using [I− ] = 0.20 M, calculate the experimental Ksp. (c) Suppose s/he mistakenly uses 1.039 V as Ecell. How does this affect [Ag+ ]dilute? Will it be too high, too low, or unaffected?

Answer:

a)    [Ag+]dilute = 6.363  × 10⁻¹⁶ M  

b)    1.273 × 10⁻¹⁶

c)    2.629×10⁻¹⁹ M Thus; the value for  [Ag+ ]dilute will be too low

Explanation:

In an Ag | Ag+ concentration cell ,

The  anode reaction can be written as :

Ag ----> Ag+(dilute) + e-    &:

The  cathode reaction can be written as:

Ag+(concentrated) + e- ----> Ag

The  Overall Reaction : is

Ag+(concentrated) -----> Ag+(dilute)

However, the Standard Reduction potential of cell = E°cell = 0

( since both cathode and anode have same Ag+║Ag )

Also , given that the theoretical slope is - 0.0591 V

Therefore; the reduction potential of cell ; i.e

Ecell = E°cell - 0.0591 V × log ( [Ag+]dilute / [Ag+]concentrated )

0.839 V = 0 - 0.0591 V × log ( [Ag+]dilute / ( 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M ) )  

log ( [Ag+]dilute / ( 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M ) ) = - 14.1963  

[Ag+]dilute = \mathbf{10^{-14.1963} } × 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M

[Ag+]dilute = 6.363  × 10⁻¹⁶ M  

b)

AgI ----> Ag + (dilute) + I⁻

So , Solubility product = Ksp = [Ag⁺]dilute × [I⁻]  

= 6.363 × 10⁻¹⁶ M × 0.20 M  

= 1.273 × 10⁻¹⁶

c) If s/he mistakenly uses 1.039 V as Ecell; then the value for [Ag+]dilute will be :

Ecell = E°cell - 0.0591 V × log ( [Ag+]dilute / [Ag+]concentrated )

1.039 V = 0 - 0.0591 V × log ( [Ag+]dilute / ( 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M ) )  

log ( [Ag+]dilute / ( 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M ) ) = - 17.5804  

[Ag+]dilute = \mathbf{10^{-17.5804} } × 1.0 × 10⁻¹ M

[Ag+]dilute = 2.629×10⁻¹⁹ M

Thus, the value for  [Ag+ ]dilute will be too low

Silicon is prepared by the reduction of K₂SiF6 with Al. Write the equation for this reaction. (Hint: Can F⁻ be oxidized in this
BlackZzzverrR [31]

4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3 is the reaction for preparation of silicon by the reduction of K₂SiF6 with Al.

AlF3xH2O-based inorganic compounds are referred to as aluminium fluoride. They are all solids without colour. Aluminium fluoride is a crystalline (sand-like), odourless, white, or colourless powder. In addition to being used to make aluminium, it also functions as a flux in welding processes and in ceramic glazes and enamels.

Silicon (Si) is created by reducing potassium silicofluoride with aluminium as the reducing agent (K2SIF6). While K2SiF6 is reduced to Si in this equation, aluminium is oxidised to aluminium fluoride. As a result, the balanced equation describing aluminum's reduction of K2SiF6 to silicon non-metal is as follows: 4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3

Why knowing the density of water important?? explain why please so I can understand it don’t copy for the internet I won’t under
Mkey [24]

Answer:

it allows us to determine whether objects will float or sink when placed in a liquid or even a gas.

Explanation:

For example, In an oil spill in the ocean, the oil rises to the top because it is less dense than water, creating an oil slick on the surface of the ocean. A Styrofoam cup is less dense than a ceramic cup, so the Styrofoam cup will float in water and the ceramic cup will sink.
