Answer: I believe the answer is A.

Explanation: Well, the lithosphere is rocks and earth, the hydrosphere makes up all the water on Earth, the biosphere is us, (living things,) and the atmosphere is the air that surrounds us and our planet. So if you go in order, it's basically lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and then atmosphere.

What volume of 1.10 M SrCl2 is needed to prepare 525 mL of 5.00 mM SrCl2?

grigory [225]

Answer:- 2.39 mL are required.

Solution:- It's a dilution problem and to solve this type of problems we use the dilution equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

Where, $M_1$ and $M_2$ are molarities of concentrated and diluted solutions and $V_1$ and $V_2$ are their respective volumes.

$M_1$ = 1.10M

$M_2$ = 5.00mM = 0.005M (since, mM stands for milli molar and M stands for molar. 1M = 1000mM)

$V_1$ = ?

$V_2$ = 525 mL

Let's plug in the given values in the formula:

$1.10M(V_1)=0.005M(525mL)$

$V_1=(\frac{0.005M*525mL}{1.10M})$

$V_1=2.39mL$

So, 2.39 mL of 1.10M are needed to make 525 mL of 5.00mM solution.

II. Ionic Equations

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Complete ionic: $\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}$ .

Net ionic: $\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

Explanation:

Start by identifying species that exist as ions. In general, such species include:

Soluble salts.
Strong acids and strong bases.

All four species in this particular question are salts. However, only three of them are generally soluble in water: $\rm AgNO_3$ , $\rm CaCl_2$ , and $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ . These three salts will exist as ions:

Each $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ag^{+}$ ion and one $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ion.
Each $\rm CaCl_2$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ca^{2+}$ ion and two $\rm Cl^{-}$ ions (note the subscript in the formula $\rm CaCl_2\!$ .)
Each $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ formula unit will exist as one $\rm Ca^{2+}$ and two $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ions.

On the other hand, $\rm AgCl$ is generally insoluble in water. This salt will not form ions.

Rewrite the original chemical equation to get the corresponding ionic equation. In this question, rewrite $\rm AgNO_3$ , $\rm CaCl_2$ , and $\rm Ca(NO_3)_2$ (three soluble salts) as the corresponding ions.

Pay attention to the coefficient of each species. For example, indeed each $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ formula unit will exist as only one $\rm Ag^{+}$ ion and one $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ ion. However, because the coefficient of $\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)\!$ in the original equation is two, $\!\rm AgNO_3\, (aq)$ alone should correspond to two $\rm Ag^{+}\!$ ions and two $\rm {NO_3}^{-}\!$ ions.

Do not rewrite the salt $\rm AgCl$ because it is insoluble.

$\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-} \, (aq) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \\ & \rm \to 2\, AgCl\, (s) + Ca^{2+}\, (aq) + 2\, {NO_3}^{-}\, (aq)\end{aligned}$ .

Eliminate ions that are present on both sides of this ionic equation. In this question, such ions include one unit of $\rm Ca^{2+}$ and two units of $\rm {NO_3}^{-}$ . Doing so will give:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm 2\, Ag^{+}\, (aq) + 2\, Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to 2\, AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .

Simplify the coefficients:

$\begin{aligned}& \rm Ag^{+}\, (aq) + Cl^{-}\, (aq) \to AgCl\, (s)\end{aligned}$ .
