Does a negative exponent mean that the number is less than 1

1 answer:

8 0

The negative sign on an exponent means the reciprocal. Think of it this way: just as a positive exponent means repeated multiplication by the base, a negative exponent means repeated division by the base.

What is called compound?

In chemistry, a compound is a substance made up of two or more different chemical elements combined in a fixed ratio.
When the elements come together, they react with each other and form chemical bonds that are difficult to break.
These bonds form as a result of sharing or exchanging electrons between atoms.

The equation for the dissociation of a solid MX in water is given below

MX(s) ⇄ Mⁿ⁺(aq) + Xⁿ⁻ (aq)

Assume s be the solubility of MX in pure water, then the equilibrium concentrations of ions are

[ Mⁿ⁺] = s

[ Xⁿ⁻ ] = s

The expression for the solubility product constant ( $Ksp$ ) is as follows

$Ksp$ = [ Mⁿ⁺] [ Xⁿ⁻ ]

= s²

That is, larger is the value of $Ksp$ the higher will the solubility of solid in water.

If the initial concentration of a is 0.00540 m, what will be the concentration after 795 s?

zavuch27 [327]

Feb 19, 2014 - The units of k tell you that this is a second order reaction. So, to solve this, you need to use the integrated rate law for a 2nd order reaction: 1/[A] = kt + 1/[A]o 1/[A] = 0.540/Ms (835 s) + 1/0.00640 1/[A] = 607 [A] = 1.65X10^-3 M.
