Answer:

You must change the size of each ingredient by the size of the product. Let's say my recipe calls for 1 bag of flower and 2 eggs. I want to double the amount of product that I make, so I must multiply each of my ingredients by 2. I would now use 2 bags of flower and 4 eggs.

From the value Kf=1.2×109 for Ni(NH3)62+, calculate the concentration of NH3 required to just dissolve 0.016 mol of NiC2O4 (Ksp

Nina [5.8K]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of $NH_3$ required will be 0.285 M.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of $NiC_2O_4$ , we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Moles of $NiC_2O_4$ = 0.016 moles

Volume of solution = 1 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of }NiC_2O_4=\frac{0.016mol}{1L}=0.016M$

For the given chemical equations:

$NiC_2O_4(s)\rightleftharpoons Ni^{2+}(aq.)+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_{sp}=4.0\times 10^{-10}$

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K_f=1.2\times 10^9$

Net equation: $NiC_2O_4(s)+6NH_3(aq.)\rightleftharpoons [Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}+C_2O_4^{2-}(aq.);K=?$

To calculate the equilibrium constant, K for above equation, we get:

$K=K_{sp}\times K_f\\K=(4.0\times 10^{-10})\times (1.2\times 10^9)=0.48$

The expression for equilibrium constant of above equation is:

$K=\frac{[C_2O_4^{2-}][[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]}{[NiC_2O_4][NH_3]^6}$

As, $NiC_2O_4$ is a solid, so its activity is taken as 1 and so for $C_2O_4^{2-}$

We are given:

$[[Ni(NH_3)_6]^{2+}]=0.016M$

Putting values in above equations, we get:

$0.48=\frac{0.016}{[NH_3]^6}}$

$[NH_3]=0.285M$

Hence, the concentration of $NH_3$ required will be 0.285 M.

Why do lows appear where there are more clouds and Highs appear where it is clear? (EXPLAIN)

7nadin3 [17]

If you mean temperature wise then it’s due to the clouds absorbing most of the sunlight, less clouds let’s more light through

Which statement is true of the particles that make up a substance?

victus00 [196]

Particles in a gas have more energy than particles in a liquid. Because in gaseous state particles are free to move around due to which kinetic energy of molecule or gas increases and hence overall energy increases

I believe it is d, a microhabitat is a small area which differs somehow from the surrounding habitat. Its unique conditions may be home to unique species that may not be found in the larger region.
