Answer:In regards to writing the formula, we know that magnesium has a charge of 1+ and sulfate, SO4, has a charge of 1-. Sulfate is a polyatomic ion so the charge of the whole thing is (SO4)1-. When you combine them you end up with MgSO4 and the "heptahydrate" is seven water molecules.

Answer:
1.7 * 10^-5
Explanation:
1- get the number of moles of PbCl2:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 0.45 / 278.1 = 1.618 * 10^-3 moles
2- get the concentration of Pb2+:
molarity = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in liters
molarity = (1.618 * 10^-3) / (0.1) = 0.0162 M
3- getting concentration of Cl-:
<span>PbCl2(s) <==> Pb2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
</span>We can note that:
For a certain amount of Pb2+ formed, twice this amount of Cl- is formed.
This means that:
for 0.0162 M of Pb2+, 2*0.0168 = 0.0324 M of Cl- is formed
4- getting Ksp:
Ksp = [Pb2+][Cl-]²
Ksp = (0.0162)*(0.0324)²
Ksp = 1.7 * 10^-5
Hope this helps :)
When waters salinity increases it’s freezing point will decrease. This is one of the reasons why people salt the roads after a snow storm.
