C%=12/16*100=3/4*100=75%
H%=25%

Answer:

The percentage composition if carbon tetrahydride is 75% of carbon and 25% of hydrogen.

Explanation:

Molecular mass of carbon tetrahydride = 16 g/mol

Atomic mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Atomic mass of hydrogen atom = 1 g/mol

Percentage of an element in a compound:

\frac{\text{Number of atoms of element}\times \text{Atomic mass of element}}{\text{molecular mass of element}}\times 100

Percentage of carbon:

\frac{1\times 12 g/mol}{16 g/mol}\times 100=75\%

Percentage of hydrogen:

\frac{4\times 1g/mol}{16 g/mol}\times 100=25\%

The percentage composition if carbon tetrahydride is 75% of carbon and 25% of hydrogen.

On the basis of the Ksp values below, what is the order of the solubility from least soluble to most soluble for these compounds
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Explanation:

The solubility constant give us the molar solubilty of ionic compounds. In general for a compound AB the ksp will be given by:

Ksp = (A) (B) where A and B are the molar solubilities = s²  (for compounds with 1:1  ratio).

It follows then  that the higher the value of Ksp the greater solubilty of the compound if we are comparing compounds with the same ionic ratios:

Comparing AgBr: Ksp = 5.4 x 10⁻¹³ with AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰, AgCl will be more soluble.

Comparing Ag2CO3: Ksp = 8.0 x 10⁻¹²  with AgCl Ksp = AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ we have the complication of  the ratio of ions 2:1 in Ag2CO3,  so the answer is not obvious. But since we know that

Ag2CO3 ⇄ 2 Ag⁺ + CO₃²₋

Ksp Ag2CO3  = 2s x s = 2 s² =  8.0 x 10-12

s = 4 x 10⁻12 ∴ s= 2 x 10⁻⁶

And for AgCl

AgCl  ⇄ Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

Ksp = s² = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰  ∴ s = √ 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰   = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵

Therefore, AgCl is more soluble than Ag₂CO₃

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Why is it dangerous to react sodium and potassium with dulute sulphuric acid?​
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Because sodium and potassium are very reactive metals so they react explosively with HCL and H2SO4 evolving a large amount of heat.

The equilibrium constant K changes with changes in<br>the temperature.​
chubhunter [2.5K]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>Equilibrium constants are changed if you change the temperature of the system. Kc or Kp are constant at constant temperature, but they vary as the temperature changes. You can see that as the temperature increases, the value of Kp falls.</h2>
