What is the difference between a Stalagmite and a stalactite?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mariana [72]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A stalagmite is a type of rock formation that rises from the floor of a cave due to the accumulation of material deposited on the floor from ceiling drippings. Stalagmites are typically composed of calcium carbonate, but may consist of lava, mud, peat, pitch, sand, sinter and amberat.

and a stalactite means mineral formation that hangs from the ceiling of caves, hot springs, or man-made structures such as bridges and mines. Any material that is soluble and that can be deposited as a colloid, or is in suspension, or is capable of being melted, may form a stalactite.

Hno3, a strong acid, is added to shift the ag2co3 equilibrium (equation 7.6) to the right. explain why the shift occurs.
Deffense [45]
Answer 1)  When a strong acid like HNO_{3} reacts with Ag_{2} CO_{3} usually the equilibrium shifts to the right because

As per the Le chatelier's principle "if in any reaction, a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the any of the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change."  So, in the given reaction when HNO_{3} reacts with Ag_{2} CO_{3}  it generates carbon dioxide and water as a by product, if we are adding HNO_{3} it will remove some of the CO_{3} molecule from the reaction mixture, which then tends to shift the equilibrium towards right.

Answer 2) The same would be observed in this case, if we replace HNO_{3} with HCl it will shift the equilibrium to the right as their will be generation of AgCl as the precipitate.

As per the definition of Le Chatelier's principle if we add reactants in the reaction the equilibrium will tend to move towards right, also if we replace the products or remove it then too it will shift the equilibrium towards right. So, in this reaction you are removing Ag^{+} and Cl^{-} ions from the solution.
