What geologic processes helped to form gold ore, oil, and aquifers?

No single geologic process did all those things. Gold is an element, a heavy element, so it accumulates in seams of hard rocks, quartz being most common. It accumulates over thousands of year

Wanted to write more both there is a problem with the editor. Uranium is formed naturally in the crust of rocks and seawater. Plutonium does not occur in nature. It is found in the biosphere.

Sodium sulfate is slowly added to a solution containing 0.0500 M Ca 2 + ( aq ) and 0.0390 M Ag + ( aq ) . What will be the conce

levacccp [35]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Sodium sulfate is slowly added to a solution containing 0.0500 M $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ and 0.0390 M $Ag^{+}(aq)$ . What will be the concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ (aq) when $Ag_{2}SO_{4}(s)$ begins to precipitate? What percentage of the $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ can be separated from the Ag(aq) by selective precipitation?

Explanation:

The given reaction is as follows.

$Ag_{2}SO_{4} \rightleftharpoons 2Ag^{+} + SO^{2-}_{4}$

$[Ag^{+}]$ = 0.0390 M

When $Ag_{2}SO_{4}$ precipitates then expression for $K_{sp}$ will be as follows.

$K_{sp} = [Ag^{+}]^{2}[SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$1.20 \times 10^{-5} = (0.0390)^{2} \times [SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$[SO^{2-}_{4}]$ = 0.00788 M

Now, equation for dissociation of calcium sulfate is as follows.

$CaSO_{4} \rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+} + SO^{2-}_{4}$

$K_{sp} = [Ca^{2+}][SO^{2-}_{4}]$

$4.93 \times 10^{-5} = [Ca^{2+}] \times 0.00788$

$[Ca^{2+}]$ = 0.00625 M

Now, we will calculate the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ remaining in the solution as follows.

$\frac{0.00625}{0.05} \times 100$

= 12.5%

And, the percentage of $Ca^{2+}$ that can be separated is as follows.

100 - 12.5

= 87.5%

Thus, we can conclude that 87.5% will be the concentration of $Ca^{2+}(aq)$ when $Ag_{2}SO_{4}(s)$ begins to precipitate.

What’s different about ionic bonding and covalent bonding ? (Help I need the answer ASAP)

Artemon [7]

The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent bonds. An ionic bond essentially donates an electron to the other atom participating in the bond, while electrons in a covalent bond are shared equally between the atoms. The only pure covalent bonds occur between identical atoms.
