The generic metal hydroxide M(OH)2 has Ksp = 8.05×10−12. (NOTE: In this particular problem, because of the magnitude of the Ksp

and the stoichiometry of the compound, the contribution of OH− from water can be ignored. However, this may not always be the case.)
a) What is the solubility of M(OH)2 in pure water?
b) What is the solubility of M(OH)2 in a 0.202 M solution of M(NO3)2?

Answer:

a. in pure water Solubility (x) = 1.26 x 10⁻⁴M

b. in 0.202M M⁺² Solubility (x) = 9.963 x 10⁻¹²M

The large drop in solubility is consistent with the common ion effect.

Explanation:

a. Solubility in pure water

Given:       M(OH)₂ ⇄ M⁺² + 2OH⁻

            I       ---            0          0

           C      ---             x          2x

           E       ---            x           2x

Ksp = [M⁺²][OH⁻]² = (x)(2x)² = 4x³ => x = CubeRt(Ksp/4)

solubility in pure water = x = CubeRt(8.05 x 10⁻¹²/4) = 1.26 x 10⁻⁴M

b. Solubility in presence of 0.202M M⁺² as common ion.

Given:       M(OH)₂ ⇄       M⁺²      +     2OH⁻

            I       ---            0.202M              0

           C      ---                 +x                 +2x

           E       ---           0.202M + x         2x

                                   ≈ 0.202M

Ksp = [M⁺²][2x]² = (0.202)(2x)² = (0.202)(4x²) = 8.05 x 10⁻¹²

=> x = (8.05 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.202)(4) = 9.963 x 10⁻¹²M

Please help me. How do I do ideal gas law?
Tcecarenko [31]
The ideal gas law (PV = nRT) relates the macroscopic properties of ideal gases. An ideal gas is a gas in which the particles (a) do not attract or repel one another and (b) take up no space (have no volume).

Two examples of energy transformations are shown.
erastova [34]

The energy transformations are similar because they result into radiant energy.

As for the lamp, Electrical energy is transformed into light when the filament

or mercury vapor glows on passage of current.

The fire- chemical energy is turned to light energy during the combustion of carbon.  Both products comprise of ultraviolet radiation which is a form of radiant energy.

Given the balanced equation below, calculate the moles of aluminum that are needed to react completely with 28.7 moles of FeO. Y
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

43.05 moles of Al needed to react with 28.7 moles of FeO.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of FeO = 28.7 mol

Moles of Al needed to react with FeO = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Al + 3FeO → 3Fe + Al₂O₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al with FeO.

                            FeO        :           Al

                             2            :            3

                          28.7          :         3/2×28.7 = 43.05 mol

Thus 43.05 moles of Al needed to react with 28.7 moles of FeO.
