Answer:

36s^5

Explanation:

We have;

M2X3 (s)------> 2M^3+(aq) + 3X^2-(aq)

If [M^3+(aq)] = [X^2-(aq)] = s

We then have;

Ksp = (2s)^2 * (3s)^3

Ksp = 4s^2 * 9s^3

Ksp = 36s^5

Note that Ksp is known as the solubility product. It is an equilibrum equation that shows the solubility of a solute in water.

If element x forms the oxides xo and x2o3 the oxidation numbers of element x are

Deffense [45]

Answer:

b) +2 and +3.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the molecular formulas:

$XO$

And:

$X_2O_3$

We can relate the subscripts with the oxidation states by knowing that they are crossed when the compound is formed, for that reason, we notice that oxygen oxidation state should be -2 for both cases and the oxidation state of X in the first formula must be +2 since both X and O has one as their subscript as they were simplified:

$X^{+2}O^{-2}$

Moreover, for the second case the oxidation state of X should be +3 in order to obtain 3 as the subscript of oxygen:

$X_2^{+3}O_3^{-2}$

Thus, answer is b)+2 and +3

Best regards.

An electrochemical cell is composed of pure nickel and pure iron electrodes immersed in solutions of their divalent ions at room

Andrej [43]

Answer:

0.758 V.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, case when we include the effect of concentration on an electrochemical cell, we need to consider the Nerst equation at 25 °C:

$E=E\°-\frac{0.0591}{n} log(Q)$

Whereas n stands for the number of moles of transferred electrons and Q the reaction quotient relating the concentration of the oxidized species over the concentration of the reduced species. In such a way, we can write the undergoing half-reactions in the cell, considering the iron's one is reversed because it has the most positive standard potential so it tends to reduction:

$Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe^0\ \ \ E\°=0.440V\\\\Ni^0\rightarrow Ni^{2+}+2e^-\ \ \ E\°=-0.250V$

It means that the concentration of the oxidized species is 0.002 M (that of nickel), that of the reduced species is 0.40 M and there are two moles of transferred electrons; therefore, the generated potential turns out:

$E=(0.440V+0.250V)-\frac{0.0591}{2} log(\frac{0.002M}{0.40M} )\\\\E=0.758V$

Beat regards!

Joseph drives 25miles North in 15 minutes then he drives 40 miles east in 30 minutes, then he uses cruise control option for 1 h

Musya8 [376]

Answer: 1.25 miles per minute

Explanation:

Average speed is the rate of change of total distance covered per unit time.

i.e Average speed = (Total distance / Time taken)

Total distance covered = (25miles + 40 miles + 70 miles + 15 miles)

= 150 miles

Total time taken = ( 15 minutes + 30 minutes + 1 hour + 15 minutes) = 120 minutes

Since 60 minutes = 1 hour, the total time taken is 120 minutes

Now, apply Average speed = (Total distance / Time taken)

= (150 miles / 120 minutes)

= 1.25 miles per minutes

Thus, Joseph drove with an average speed of 1.25 miles per minute.
