Answer:

(A) 1.962x10^-10 M solubility in pure water

(B) 4.0 x 10^-33 M solubility

(C) 4.0 x 10^-27 M solubility

Explanation:

(A) Fe(OH)3 would give (Fe3+) and (3OH-)

Ksp = [Fe^3+][OH-]^3 = 4.0 x 10^-38

Let y = [Fe^3+]

Let 3y = [OH-]

4x10^-38 = (y)(3y)^3

4x10^-38 = 27y^4

y^4 = 4x10^-38 ÷ 27

y^4 = 1.481 x 10^-39

y = 1.962x10^-10 M solubility in pure water

(B) pH = 5.0

5.0 = - log [OH-]

-5.0 = log [OH-]

[OH-] = 10^-5.0 = 1.0 x 10^-5 M

So, Ksp = [Fe^3+][OH-]^3 = 4.0 x 10^-38

[Fe^3+][1.0 x 10^-5] = 4.0 x 10^-38

[Fe^3+] = 4.0 x 10^-38 ÷ 1.0 x 10^-5

= 4.0 x 10^-33 M solubility

11.0 = - log [OH-]

-11.0 = log [OH-]

[OH-] = 10^-11.0 = 1.0 x 10^-11 M

So, Ksp = [Fe^3+][OH-]^3 = 4.0 x 10^-38

[Fe^3+][1.0 x 10^-11] = 4.0 x 10^-38

[Fe^3+] = 4.0 x 10^-38 ÷ 1.0 x 10^-11

= 4.0 x 10^-27 M solubility

40.0L of N₂ gas are in a sealed container at STP.How many moles of N₂ are present?9 mol

Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

We have to find the number of moles of N₂ that are present in a sample that has a volume of 40.0 L at STP.

STP means Standard Conditions of Temperature and Pressure. These conditions are 273.15 K and 1 atm. We know that 1 mol of N₂ will occupy 22.4 L. We can use that ratio to find the answer to our problem.

1 mol of N₂ = 22.4 L

moles of N₂ = 40.0 L * 1 mol/(22.4 L)

moles of N₂ = 1.79 mol

Answer: 1.79 moles of nitrogen are present.

4. What is the total mass of ice that can be vaporized by 2100 kJ of heat energy?

anygoal [31]

Answer:

5 g

Explanation:

The heat required to vaporize ice is the sum of

i) Heat required to melt ice at 0°C

ii) Heat required to raise the temperature from 0°C to 100°C

iii) Heat required to vaporize water at 100°C

Thus;

H = nLfus + ncθ + nLvap

H= n(Lfus + cθ + Lvap)

Lfus = 6.01 kJ/mol

Lvap = 41 kJ/mol

c = 75.38

n =?

2100 = n(6.01 + 75.38(100) + 41)

n = 2100 KJ/7585.01 kJ/mol

n = 0.277 moles

Mass of water = number of moles * molar mass

Mass of water = 0.277 moles * 18 g/mol

Mass of water = 5 g

What is the limiting reactant when 4 mol P4 and 4 mol S8 react.

In-s [12.5K]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

8 P₄ + 3 S₈ → 8 P₄S₃

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

P₄: 8 moles
S₈: 3 moles
P₄S₃: 8 moles

<h3>Limiting reagent</h3>

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

<h3>Limiting reagent in this case</h3>

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 3 moles of S₈ reacts with 8 moles of P₄, 4 moles of S₈ reacts with how many moles of P₄?

$moles of P_{4} =\frac{4 moles of S_{8} x8 moles of P_{4} }{3 moles of S_{8}}$

<u><em>moles of P₄= 10.667 moles</em></u>

But 10.667 moles of P₄ are not available, 4 moles are available. Since you have less amount of moles than you need to react with 4 moles of S₈, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.

Write the concentration equilibrium constant expression for this reaction.

Akimi4 [234]

In a chemical reaction, the equilibrium constant refers to the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium, that is, a condition attained by a dynamic chemical system after adequate time has passed, and at which its composition has no measurable capacity to undergo any kind of further modification.

The given reaction is: HCN (aq) + OH⁻ = CN⁻ (aq) + H2O (l)

The equilibrium constant = product of concentration of products / product of concentration of reactants

(Here, H2O is not considered as its concentration is very high)

So, Keq = [CN⁻] / [HCN] [OH⁻]
