3. The complex ion Co(H2O)6 2(aq) is pink when placed in solution. Addition of chloride ions creates an equilibrium with CoCl42-
mart [117]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

When the complex ion Co(H2O)6 2+(aq) is placed in solution and chloride ions are added, the following equilobrium is set up;

  Co(H2O)62+(aq) + 4 Cl-(aq) <=> CoCl42-(aq) + 6 H2O(g)

Co(H2O)6 2+(aq) solution  is pink in colour while CoCl42-(aq) solution is blue in colour.

Since the solubility of CoCl42-(aq) is endothermic, heating the solution will move the equilibrium position towards the right (more CoCl42-(aq) is formed and the solution is blue in colour).

When the solution is cooled, more Co(H2O)62+(aq) is formed and the equilibrium position shifts towards the left and the solution becomes pink in colour.

How many seconds are in the month of may? (May has 31 days)
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

92,565,504,000 seconds in 31 days

Explanation:

multiply the days by 24 hours

31 * 24= 744

multiply the hours in 1440 minutes

1071360 minutes

now multiply that by 86400 seconds

92,565,504,000 seconds in 31 days

The first question is "how many moles of carbon monoxide (co) are required to react completely with 1.75 moles of iron (iii) oxi
Stells [14]

According to your equation, for every mole of iron oxide (Fe2O3), it takes 3 moles of carbon monoxide (CO). So for 1.75 moles, it takes 3 times as many moles of CO.

1.75 x 3 = 5.25 moles of CO.

I think your product is CO2. Dalton's Law sayeth that the coefficients tell us the ratios of moles. So if you hve 1.75 moles of Fe(III)oxide, 3*1.75 moles of CO are needed (in theory) to react completely. The answer is requested in moles, so you need go no further.
