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

How many grams of sodium oxide can be synthesized from 17.4 g of sodium? assume that more than enough oxygen is present. the bal
Tatiana [17]
Equation is as follow,

<span>                          4 Na (s)  +  O</span>₂ <span>(g)    →    2Na</span>₂<span>O (s)

According to equation,

      91.92 g (4 moles) of Na produces  =  123.92 g (2 moles) of Na</span>₂O
So,
                    17.4 g of Na will produce  =  X g of Na₂O

Solving for X,
                                   X  =  (17.4 g × 123.92 g) ÷ 91.92 g

                                   X  =  23.45 g of Na₂O

a. Calculate the pH of a solution that has [H3O+]= 4.3 x 10-5 M. b. Is the solution acidic or basic? How do you know?
Luda [366]

Answer:

* pH=4.37

* The solution is acidic since the pH is below 7.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can mathematically define the pH by:

pH=-log([H_3O^+])

Thus, for the given hydronium concentration we simply compute the pH:

pH=-log(4.3x10^{-5})=4.37

Thereby, we conclude the solution is acidic due to the fact that the pH is below 7 which is the neutral point and above it the solutions are basic.

Regards.
