For the first question, salt is soluble while sand is insoluble or not dissolvable in water. The salt should have vanished or melted, but the sand stayed noticeable or visible, making a dark brown solution probably with some sand particles caught on the walls of the container when the boiling water was put in to the mixture of salt and sand. The solubility of a chemical can be disturbed by temperature, and in the case of salt in water, the hot temperature of the boiling water enhanced the salt's capability to melt in it.
For the second question, the melted or dissolved salt should have easily made its way through the filter paper and into the second container, while the undissolved and muddy sand particles is caught on the filter paper. The size of the pores of the filter paper didn’t change. On the contrary, the size of the salt became smaller because it has been dissolved which is also the reason why it was able to go through the filter paper, while the size of the sand may have doubled or even tripled which made it harder to pass through.
Neon I think. Go to the periodic table and see which one is the 11th
Hello!
The chemical reaction for the dissolving of calcium fluoride is the following:
CaF₂(s) ⇄ Ca⁺²(aq) + 2F⁻(aq)
In this reaction, and according to Le Chatelier's principle, the action that would shift this reaction away from solid calcium fluoride and towards the dissolved ions is the removing of fluoride ions.
Le Chatelier's principle states that in an equilibrium reaction, the system would shift in the opposite direction of the changes. If we remove fluoride ions from the system, it will shift towards the formation of more fluoride ions by dissolving more Calcium Fluoride to achieve equilibrium again.
Have a nice day!
X is always the independent variable
Answer:
pH = 2.0
Explanation:
To find the pH of a solution, take the -log[H+]. In this case, the -log(9.4 x 10^-3) equals 2.02687 which makes 2.0 when accounting for significant figures.
