Hi!

When the ocean reaches its saturation level of carbon dioxide, a couple of things will happen:

First, more carbon dioxide will remain in the atmosphere, and second, the ocean's pH will drop.

Carbonate and bicarbonate ions in seawater act as a buffer system which keeps the ocean's pH levels stable. When CO2 dissolves in seawater, it reacts with the ocean's buffer system in such a way that it produces two hydrogen ions, which lowers the pH. As more and more CO2 reacts with the ocean's buffer system and the system becomes saturated, less atmospheric carbon dioxide will cross over into the ocean. This excess CO2 will remain in the atmosphere and contribute to global climate change.

Hope this helped!

Lead(II) nitrate is added slowly to a solution that is 0.0800 M in Cl− ions. Calculate the concentration of Pb2+ ions (in mol /

barxatty [35]

Answer:

$[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M$

this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation

Explanation:

$PbCl_2$ ⇄ $Pb^{2+}+2Cl^-$

Precipitation starts when ionic product is greater than solubility product.

Ip>Ksp

Precipitation starts only when solution is supersaturated because solution become supersaturated then it does not stay in this form and precipitation starts itself only solution become saturated.

This usually happens when two solutions containing separate sources of cation and anion are mixed together and here also we are mixing lead (||)nitrate solution(source of lead(||)) into the Cl- solution.

$Ip=[Pb^{2}][2Cl^-]^2=Ksp$

$Ksp=2.4\times 10^{-4}$

lets solubility=S

$[Pb^{2+}] = S$

$[Cl^-]=2S$

$Ksp=[Pb^{2+}]\times [Cl^-]^2$

$Ksp=S \times (2S)^2$

$Ksp=4S^3$

$S=\sqrt[3]{\frac{Ksp}{4} }$

$S=3.9\times 10^{-2}$

$[Pb^{2+}]=3.9 \times 10^{-2}M$ this is the concentration required to initiate precipitation

8. What group numbers are the transition elements in?

Anna007 [38]

The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals". As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat. The interesting thing about transition metals is that their valence electrons, or the electrons they use to combine with other elements, are present in more than one shell. This is the reason why they often exhibit several common oxidation states. There are three noteworthy elements in the transition metals family. These elements are iron, cobalt, and nickel, and they are the only elements known to produce a magnetic field I HOPE THIS HELP:)
