Answer: The solubility of this compound in pure water is 0.012 M

Explanation:

Solubility product is defined as the equilibrium constant in which a solid ionic compound is dissolved to produce its ions in solution. It is represented as K_{sp}

The equation for the ionization of the  is given as:

Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow Ca^{2+}+2OH^-  

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of  Ca(OH)_2 gives 1 mole of Ca^{2+} and 2 mole of OH^-

When the solubility of  Ca(OH)_2 is S moles/liter, then the solubility of Ca^{2+}  will be S moles\liter and solubility of OH^- will be 2S moles/liter.

K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^{-}]^2

6.5\times 10^{-6}=[S][2S]^2

S=0.012M

Thus solubility of this compound in pure water is 0.012 M

How do I explain this? I'm a little stuck. :/
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Not balance.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

K + Cl₂    →    KCl

The given equation is not balance because there are one potassium and two chlorine atoms on left side of equation while on right side there are one potassium and one chlorine atom present.

Balance chemical equation:

2K + Cl₂    →    2KCl

the equation is balance now because there are two potassium and two chlorine atoms on left side of equation and two potassium and two chlorine atoms are also present on right side.

How many grams are in .11 moles of Cu
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

m= 6.9905 = 7 g

Explanation:

The formula is m= M.n

m= mass (g), M= Molar mass (g/mole), n= moles (moles)

Molar mass of Cu is 63.55

=) m= 63.55*0.11

   m= 6.9905 = 7 g
