Answer:

[OH⁻] = 3,09x10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

Selective precipitation is a technique of separating ions in an aqueous solution by using a reagent that precipitates one or more of the ions. In this case, you use OH⁻ from potassium hydroxide to precipitate cobalt thus:

Co(OH)₂ ⇄ Co²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ K_{sp} = 5,92x10⁻¹⁵

The K_{sp} definition is:

K_{sp} = [Co²⁺] [OH⁻]²

Knowing  [Co²⁺] is 0,0621M:

5,92x10⁻¹⁵ = 0,0621M ×  [OH⁻]²

Thus, concentration of hydroxide ion required to just initiate precipitation is: <em>[OH⁻] = 3,09x10⁻⁷ M</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

A sample of 0.370 mol of a metal oxide (m2o3) weighs 55.45 g. how many grams of o are in the sample?
Wewaii [24]
0.370 mol metal oxide = 55.45 g 

<span>1 mol = 55.45/0.370 = 149.86 g </span>

<span>in 1 mol there are 3 mol O = 16 * 3 = 48 g of O </span>

<span>there is 48/149.86 * 100% O in the sample </span>

<span>the sample has 48/149.86 * 0.370 = 0.119 g O</span>

have you ever been in a forest? if you have, you’ve probably noticed that it’s usually very shady, and not a lot of sunlight hits the ground. That’s cause the tall trees are so dense, the sunlight doesn’t reach the ground

a solution has 23.22% mass/concentration of a particular solvent what is the mass of solute dissolved in 2.5 liter of solvent?
aleksandrvk [35]
Let the mass of the solute be x

So, the equation would be
x/2.5+x ×100 = 23.22
x/2.5+x = 23.22/100
100x = 58.05 + 23.22x
100x - 23.22x = 58.05
76.78x = 58.05
x =0.756 ≈ 0.76 litres
