Answer:

[K2SO4] = 4,75x10⁻⁷M ; [K⁺] = 9.50x10⁻⁷M ; [SO4⁻²] = 4,75x10⁻⁷M

SO4⁻²: 0.045ppm ; K⁺: 0.037ppm

[SO4⁻²] = 4,70x10⁻⁷ F

Explanation:

Determine the equation

K2SO4 → 2K⁺ + SO4⁻²

Each mole of potassium sulfate generates two moles of potassium cation and one mole of sulfate anion

Molar mass K2SO4: 174.26 g/m

Moles of K2SO4: grams / molar mass

2.07x10⁻⁴g / 174.26 g/m = 1.18x10⁻⁶ moles

Molarity: Moles of solute in 1 L of solution

1.18x10⁻⁶ moles / 2.5 L = 4,75x10⁻⁷M (K2SO4)

K⁺ : 4,75x10⁻⁷M . 2 = 9.50x10⁻⁷M

SO4⁻²: 4,75x10⁻⁷ M

1 mol of K2SO4 has 2 moles of K and 1 mol of SO4

1.18x10⁻⁶ moles of K2SO4 has 1.18x10⁻⁶ moles of SO4 and 2.37x10⁻⁶ moles of K.

1.18x10⁻⁶ moles of SO4⁻² are 1.13x10⁻⁴ grams (moles. molar mass)

2.37x10⁻⁶ moles of K are 9.26x10⁻⁵ grams (moles. molar mass)

These grams are in 2.5 L of water, so we need μg/mL to get ppm

2.5 L = 2500 mL

1.13x10⁻⁴ grams SO4⁻² are 113.35 μg (1 μg = 1x10⁶ g)

9.26x10⁻⁵ grams K⁺ are 92.6 μg (1 μg = 1x10⁶ g)

113.35 μg /2500 mL = 0.045ppm

92.6 μg /2500 mL = 0.037ppm

Formal concentration of SO4⁻² :

Formality = Number of formula weight of solute / Volume of solution (L)

(1.13x10⁻⁴ grams / 96.06 g ) / 2.5 L = 4,70x10⁻⁷ F

How many formula units are in 25.4 g of MgCl2?

stiv31 [10]

Answer: 1.58 x $10^{23}$

Explanation:

1 mole of magnesium chloride has a mass of 95.211 g and contains 6.022⋅ $10^{23}$ formula units of magnesium chloride, you can say that,

25.0 g x (6.022 x $10^{23}$ form units MgCl2) /95.211 = 1.58 x $10^{23}$

A solution of Na2CO3 is added dropwise to a solution that contains 1.15×10−2 M Fe2+ and 0.58×10−2 M Cd2+. What concentration of

castortr0y [4]

The question is incomplete, complete question is;

A solution of $Na_2CO_3$ is added dropwise to a solution that contains $1.15\times 10^{-2} M$ of $Fe^{2+}$ and $0.58\times 10^{-2} M$ and $Cd^{2+}$ .

What concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation? Neglect any volume changes during the addition.

$K_{sp}$ value $FeCO_3: 2.10\times 10^{-11}$

$K_{sp}$ value $CdCO_3: 1.80\times 10^{-14}$

What concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation of the first ion.

Answer:

Cadmium carbonate will precipitate out first.

Concentration of $CO_3^{2-}$ is need to initiate precipitation of the cadmium (II) ion is $3.103\times 10^{-12} M$ .

Explanation:

1) $FeCO_3\rightleftharpoons Fe^{2+}+CO_3^{2-}$

The expression of an solubility product of iron(II) carbonate :

$K_{sp}=[Fe^{2+}][CO_3^{2-}]$

$2.10\times 10^{-11}=0.58\times 10^{-2} M\times [CO_3^{2-}]$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=\frac{2.10\times 10^{-11}}{1.15\times 10^{-2} M}$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=1.826\times 10^{-9}M$

2) $CdCO_3\rightleftharpoons Cd^{2+}+CO_3^{2-}$

The expression of an solubility product of cadmium(II) carbonate :

$K_{sp}=[Cd^{2+}][CO_3^{2-}]$

$1.80\times 10^{-14}=0.58\times 10^{-2} M\times [CO_3^{2-}]$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=\frac{1.80\times 10^{-14}}{0.58\times 10^{-2} M}$

$[CO_3^{2-}]=3.103\times 10^{-12} M$

On comparing the concentrations of carbonate ions for both metallic ions, we can see that concentration to precipitate out the cadmium (II) carbonate from the solution is less than concentration to precipitate out the iron (II) carbonate from the solution.

So, cadmium carbonate will precipitate out first.

And the concentration of carbonate ions to start the precipitation of cadmium carbonate we will need concentration of carbonate ions greater than the $3.103\times 10^{-12} M$ concentration.

How does your reaction time to the voluntary action of your quadriceps in compare with your reaction time to the simple reaction

slava [35]

If we know what we are reading, reaction time to the simple reaction task in this project will be less than reaction time to the voluntary action of your quadriceps, however, if we are reading for the first time, reaction time to the simple reaction task in this project will be more than reaction time to the voluntary action of your quadriceps.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

First, we need to know what is the reaction time. Reaction time is the amount of time it takes to respond to a stimulus. Now we will talk about voluntary and involuntary actions.

Voluntary action is an action that is thought of and consciously performed by the person. So we can say the person has full control over the situation. An involuntary action is one which occurs without the conscious choice of an organism. If the involuntary action occurred as a response to some stimulus it will be known as a reflex. If we compare the reaction time of voluntary action of our quadriceps and the simple reaction to the task given in the project, the reaction time could be less only if we have studied about the given question in the given task.

So the lines what we are reading will come to our mind involuntarily, but if we are talking about typing the answer the reaction time would be more as first, we have to form a structured sentence and then type it, so it will take more time.
