Answer:
Exposure of silver chloride to sunlight for a long duration turns grey due to photolytic decomposition i.e decomposition in the presence of sunlight.
Explanation:
When silver chloride, AgCl is exposed to sunlight for a long time, it will undergo decomposition as the sunlight provides sufficient energy needed to decomposed the salt, AgCl to metallic silver and chlorine gas. This can be seen in the equation below:
2AgCl —> 2Ag + Cl2
The answer is
D. Covalent bond
Hope this helps you have a great day.
Answer:
The equilibrium shifts to the left, and the concentration of Ba2+(aq) decreases
Explanation:
Whenever a solution of an ionic substance comes into contact with another ionic compound with which it shares a common ion, the solubility of the ionic substance in solution decreases significantly.
In this case, both BaSO4 and Na2SO4 both possess the SO4^2- anion. Hence SO4^2- anion is the common ion. Given the equilibrium;
BaSO4(s) <—> Ba2+ (aq) + SO4 2- (aq), addition of Na2SO4 will decrease the solubility of BaSO4 due to the presence of a common SO4^2- anion compared to pure water.
This implies that the equilibrium will shift to the left, (more undissoctiated BaSO4) hence decreasing the Ba^2+(aq) concentration.
Answer:
Explanation:
Work function of potassium = 2.29 eV = 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹ J
So the minimum energy of photon must be equal to 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹ J .
energy of photon of wavelength λ = hc / λ
where h = 6.67 x 10⁻³⁴
c = 3 x 10⁸
Putting the values in the equation above
6.67 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / λ = 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹
λ = 6.67 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / 3.67 X 10⁻¹⁹
= 5.452 x 10⁻⁷
= 5452 x 10⁻¹⁰ m
= 5452 A .
