You are given a solution containing a pair of enantiomers (A and B). Careful measurements show that the solution contains 98% A

and 2% B. What is the ee of this solution

Answer:

ee = 96%

Explanation:

Enantiomeric excess, ee, is a way to express a mixture that is not enantiomerically pure. It is defined as 100 times the ratio between the differences of amounts of enantiomers and the total amunt. that is:

ee = |A-B|/ A+B * 100

ee = |98%-2%| / 98+2 * 100

<h3>ee = 96%</h3>

Yasir wants to determine if there is a relationship between room color and sleep. Based on his research, Yasir makes an educated

Fynjy0 [20]

Yasir wanted to study the relationship between sleep and room color. So he has done all the background study required on the topic and arrived at a hypothesis that people fall asleep more rapidly in a room painted in blue color than in a room painted yellow. Yasir inquired several people which color they like better -yellow or blue- and used their feedback to decide whether his hypothesis was correct. There was no experiment conducted to observe the effect of a room color on sleep and the variables to be tested in the experiment were not properly identified.

Therefore, the correct answer would be,

An experiment that directly tests the hypothesis

Variables to be tested by an experiment

1. The solubility of lead(II) chloride at some high temperature is 3.1 x 10-2 M. Find the Ksp of PbCl2 at this temperature.

solniwko [45]

Answer:

1) The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride is $1.2\times 10^{-4}$ .

2) The solubility of the aluminium hydroxide is $1.6\times 10^{-10} M$ .

3)The given statement is false.

Explanation:

1)

Solubility of lead chloride = $S=3.1\times 10^-2M$

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

S 2S

The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride = $K_{sp}$

$K_{sp}=[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2$

$K_{sp}=S\times (2S)^2=4S^3=4\times (3.1\times 10^{-2})^3=1.2\times 10^{-4}$

The solubility product of the lead(II) chloride is $1.2\times 10^{-4}$ .

2)

Concentration of aluminium nitrate = 0.000010 M

Concentration of aluminum ion = $1\timed 0.000010 M=0.000010 M$

Solubility of aluminium hydroxide in aluminum nitrate solution = $S$

$Al(OH)_3(aq)\rightleftharpoons Al^{3+}(aq)+3OH^-(aq)$

S 3S

The solubility product of the aluminium nitrate = $K_{sp}=1.0\times 10^{-33}$

$K_{sp}=[Al^{3+}][OH^-]^3$

$1.0\times 10^{-33}=(0.000010+S)\times (3S)^3$

$S=1.6\times 10^{-10} M$

The solubility of the aluminium hydroxide is $1.6\times 10^{-10} M$ .

$Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume (L)}$

Mass of NaCl= 3.5 mg = 0.0035 g

1 mg = 0.001 g

Moles of NaCl = $\frac{0.0035 g}{58.5 g/mol}=6.0\times 10^{-5} mol$

Volume of the solution = 0.250 L

$[NaCl]=\frac{6.0\times 10^{-5} mol}{0.250 L}=0.00024 M$

1 mole of NaCl gives 1 mole of sodium ion and 1 mole of chloride ions.

$[Cl^-]=[NaCl]=0.00024 M$

Moles of lead (II) nitrate = n

Volume of the solution = 0.250 L

Molarity lead(II) nitrate = 0.12 M

$n=0.12 M]\times 0.250 L=0.030 mol$

1 mole of lead nitrate gives 1 mole of lead (II) ion and 2 moles of nitrate ions.

$[Pb^{2+}]=[Pb(NO_2)_3]=0.030 M$

$PbCl_2(aq)\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

Solubility of lead(II) chloride = $K_{sp}=1.2\times 10^{-4}$

Ionic product of the lead chloride in solution :

$Q_i=[Pb^{2+}][Cl^-]^2=0.030 M\times (0.00024 M)^2=1.7\times 10^{-9}$

$Q_i$ ( no precipitation)

The given statement is false.

Answer:

B sediment

Explanation:

The excess mileage leads to additional pollution. Car exhaust contains toxic gases, and car fluids often leak (oil drips, antifreeze leaks, etc...). The exhaust also contains nitrogen oxide, which can lead to nutrient-related problems in the environment.
