Answer:

[Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂] = 1.85M (3 sig-figs accurate to 0.01 Molar)

Explanation:

Concentration is defined as amount of solute in a specified volume of solution. That is, Concentration = mass of solute/volume of solution (solution = solute + solvent). When concentration is in terms of Molar values the essential relationship is Molarity(M) = moles solute / volume of solution in liters.

For this problem => first, convert mass of Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂ into moles and then the volume of solution into liters. Take ratio of moles/volume of solution (L).

=> Molar Concentration = moles of Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂ / Liters of solution

moles of Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂ = 85.0 grams Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂ / formula weight of Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂  =  85.0g/183.5g·mole⁻¹ = 0.463 mole Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂.

Volume of solution in Liters = 250ml / 1000ml/L = 0.250 liters

Molarity of  Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂ solution = 0.463 mole Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂  /0.250 liters of solution = 1.85 Molar in Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂

_____________

Note: The symbiology convention for 'molar solution concentration' is to place brackets around the molecular formula. That is, [Zn(C₂H₃O₂)₂] = 1.85M

Which acid is the best choice to create a buffer with ph= 3.19?
Crazy boy [7]
<span>The best choice is hypochlorous acid nitrous acid (HNO2) because it has the nearest value of pK to the desired pH.
pKa of </span>nitrous acid<span> is 3.34 
If we know pKa and pH values,  we can calculate the required ratio of conjugate base (NO2⁻) to acid (HNO2) from the following equation:
pH=pKa + log(conc. of base)/( conc. of acid)
</span><span>3.19=3.34 + log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
</span><span>3.19 - 3.34 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
-0.15 = log c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2)
c(NO2⁻)/c(HNO2) = 10⁰¹⁵ = 1.41

Lewis dot diagram for the Cs1+ ion
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Cs^+

Explanation:

Cesium Lewis dot structure would look like this:

·Cs,  because it only has one valence electron. But, since it has a plus, that means we lost an electron. So, we have to get rid of the dot and you have:

Cs^+
