What are the correct coefficients when this equation is balanced?

larisa86 [58]

4, 3, 1

Explanation:

Sb has four on the right, so it needs four on the left. It's all alone, so <u>4</u>.

O2 comes in pairs, so you only need <u>3</u> of those to get six oxygens.

And 1 is the place holder for the right side since we got the left to match perfectly.

Why do you think the Na+ ion is smaller than a neutral Na atom? Why do you think the Cl - ion is larger than a neutral Cl atom?

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Na+ ion is smaller than a neutral Na atom in the ion there was one more proton which will attract electron bring it closer to the center making the atomic radius smaller. Therefore making a Na+ ion is smaller than a neutral Na atom Explanation:

The Ksp of yttrium iodate, Y(IO3)3 , is 1.12×10−10 . Calculate the molar solubility, s , of this compound.

torisob [31]

Answer:

1.427x10^-3mol per L

Explanation:

$Y(IO_{3} )_{3} ---- Y^{3+} +IO_{3} ^{3-}$

I could use ⇌ in the math editor so I used ----

from the question each mole of Y(IO3)3 is dissolved and this is giving us a mole of Y3+ and a mole of IO3^3-

Ksp = [Y^3+][IO3-]^3

So that,

1.12x10^-10 = [S][3S]^3

such that

1.12x10^-10 = 27S^4

the value of s is 0.001427mol per L

= 1.427x10^-3mol per L

so in conclusion

the molar solubility is therefore 1.427x10^-3mol per L
