Explanation:
Alkanes are hydrocarbons that only contain single bonds in them. A carbon can bond with up to 4 atoms, even with another carbon atom. So, in a C-C bond, 3 more H atoms can bond to each of the C atom. Generally, the chemical formula for alkanes is CₓH₂ₓ₊₂. So for butane, there are 4 C atoms. The corresponding H atoms are 2(4) + 2 = 10. That's why it's chemical formula is C₄H₁₀.
<span>The oxygen atom accepts the proton. The oxidation number of O is -2, meaning that there are two unshared electrons in the valence shell; In the ClO- ion, one of these is shared with the Cl- ion, leaving an unshared electron on the oxygen atom, which is what the hydrogen atom shares its electron with, becoming the proton accepted by the O atom.</span>
Answer:
[Cl⁻] = 0.016M
Explanation:
First of all, we determine the reaction:
Pb(NO₃)₂ (aq) + MgCl₂ (aq) → PbCl₂ (s) ↓ + Mg(NO₃)₂(aq)
This is a solubility equilibrium, where you have a precipitate formed, lead(II) chloride. This salt can be dissociated as:
PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺ (aq) + 2Cl⁻ (aq) Kps
Initial x
React s
Eq x - s s 2s
As this is an equilibrium, the Kps works as the constant (Solubility product):
Kps = s . (2s)²
Kps = 4s³ = 1.7ₓ10⁻⁵
4s³ = 1.7ₓ10⁻⁵
s = ∛(1.7ₓ10⁻⁵ . 1/4)
s = 0.016 M
