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

kirill [66]
<span>Answer: A 0.04403 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-mL at 289.0 K and 1.10 atm. Upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% C and 74.695% Cl. What is the molecular formula of the compound? --------------------------------------... Seems like I did a problem very similar to this--this must be the "B" test. But the halogen was different. 25.305% C/12 = 2.108 74.695% Cl/35.5 = 2.104 So the empirical formula would be CH. However, there are many compounds which fit this bill, so we have to use the gas data. (And I made, in the previous problem, the simplifying assumption that 289C and 1.10 atm would offset each other, so I'll do that, too.) 0.044 grams/10 ml = x/22.4 liters 0.044g/0.010 liters = x/22.4 liters 22.4 liters/0.010 liters = 2240 (ratio) 2240 x .044 = 98.56 (actual atomic weight) CCl = 35.5+12 or 47.5, so two of those is 95 grams/mole. This is sufficiient to distinguish C2CL2, (dichloroacetylene) from C6CL6 (hexachlorobenzene) which would mass 3 times as much.</span>

What contribution did these scientists make to atomic models of the atom?
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Explanation:

Dalton's atomic theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms, indivisible and indestructible building blocks. While all atoms of an element were identical, different elements had atoms of differing size and mass.

In 1897, J.J. Thomson discovered the electron by experimenting with a Crookes, or cathode ray, tube. He demonstrated that cathode rays were negatively charged. In addition, he also studied positively charged particles in neon gas.

Rutherford overturned Thomson's model in 1911 with his well-known gold foil experiment in which he demonstrated that the atom has a tiny and heavy nucleus. Rutherford designed an experiment to use the alpha particles emitted by a radioactive element as probes to the unseen world of atomic structure.

The Bohr model shows the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons. Bohr was the first to discover that electrons travel in separate orbits around the nucleus and that the number of electrons in the outer orbit determines the properties of an element.

If 1,079.75 Joules of heat are added to 77.75 grams of water, by how many degrees Celsius would the water increase? Assume water
djyliett [7]

Answer:

If 1,079.75 Joules of heat are added to 77.75 grams of water, by 3.32 degrees Celsius the temperature of  water will increase

\Delta T=3.32 C^{0}

Explanation:

q = mC\Delta T

Here , q = heat added / removed from the substance

m  = mass of the substance taken

\Delta T = Change in temperature

C = specific heat capacity of the substance

In liquid state the value of C for water is :

4.18 J/gC^{0}

Given values :

q = 1079.75 J

m = 77.75 gram

Insert the value of C, m , q in the given equation

q = mC\Delta T

on transposing ,

\Delta T=\frac{q}{mC}

\Delta T=\frac{1079.75}{77.75\times 4.18}

\Delta T=3.32 C^{0}
