Explanation:

Ionic bonds involve a cation and an anion. The bond is formed when an atom, typically a metal, loses an electron or electrons, and becomes a positive ion, or cation. Another atom, typically a non-metal, is able to acquire the electron(s) to become a negative ion, or anion.

The solubility of kcl in ethanol is 0.25 g / 100 ml at 25 oc. how does this compare to the solubility of kcl in water?

Furkat [3]

Solubility data of a certain solute with a certain solvent is empirical. There are constant values for this at varying temperatures. For KCl in water at 25°C, the solubility is 35.7 g/100 mL of water. When you compare this with the solubility data of KCl with ethanol, this means that KCl is more soluble in water than in ethanol. This is true because KCl is an ionic salt which is very soluble in water.

A city continuously disposes of effluent from a wastewater treatment plant into a river. The minimum flow in the river is 130 m3

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

$2.54\ \text{mg/L}$

Explanation:

C = Allowable concentration = 1.1 mg/L

$Q_1$ = Flow rate of river = $130\ \text{m}^/\text{s}$

$Q_2$ = Discharge from plant = $37\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

$C_1$ = Background concentration = 0.69 mg/L

$C_2$ = Maximum concentration that of the pollutant

The concentration of the mixture will be

$C=\dfrac{Q_1C_1+Q_2C_2}{Q_1+Q_2}\\\Rightarrow C_2=\dfrac{C(Q_1+Q_2)-Q_1C_1}{Q_2}\\\Rightarrow C_2=\dfrac{1.1(130+37)-130\times 0.69}{37}\\\Rightarrow C_2=2.54\ \text{mg/L}$

The maximum concentration that of the pollutant (in mg/L) that can be safely discharged from the wastewater treatment plant is $2.54\ \text{mg/L}$ .

A solution was found to have a 15.6 % transmittance at 500 nm, its wavelength of maximum absorption, using a cell with a path le

Gnesinka [82]

For the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm is mathematically given as

A’ = 0.16138

<h3>What is the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm?</h3>

Absorbance (A) 2 – log (%T) = 2 – log (15.6) = 0.8069

Generally, the equation for the Beer’s law is mathematically given as

A = ε*c*l

0.8069 = ε*c*(5.00 )

ε*c = 0.16138 cm-1

then for when ε*c is constant

l’ = 1.00

A’ = (0.16138 cm-1)*(1.00 cm)

A’ = 0.16138

In conclusion, the absorbance of the solution in a 1.00 cm cell at 500 nm is

A’ = 0.16138
