Solid NaI is slowly added to a solution that is 0.0079 M Cu+ and 0.0087 M Ag+.Which compound will begin to precipitate first?NaI

NeTakaya

Answer :

AgI should precipitate first.

The concentration of $Ag^+$ when CuI just begins to precipitate is, $6.64\times 10^{-7}M$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains is, 0.0076 %

Explanation :

$K_{sp}$ for CuI is $1\times 10^{-12}$

$K_{sp}$ for AgI is $8.3\times 10^{-17}$

As we know that these two salts would both dissociate in the same way. So, we can say that as the Ksp value of AgI has a smaller than CuI then AgI should precipitate first.

Now we have to calculate the concentration of iodide ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$CuI\rightleftharpoons Cu^++I^-$

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

$K_{sp}=[Cu^+][I^-]$

$1\times 10^{-12}=0.0079\times [I^-]$

$[I^-]=1.25\times 10^{-10}M$

Now we have to calculate the concentration of silver ion.

The solubility equilibrium reaction will be:

$AgI\rightleftharpoons Ag^++I^-$

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

$K_{sp}=[Ag^+][I^-]$

$8.3\times 10^{-17}=[Ag^+]\times 1.25\times 10^{-10}M$

$[Ag^+]=6.64\times 10^{-7}M$

Now we have to calculate the percent of $Ag^+$ remains in solution at this point.

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains = $\frac{6.64\times 10^{-7}}{0.0087}\times 100$

Percent of $Ag^+$ remains = 0.0076 %

A balloon vendor at a street fair is using a tank of helium to fill her balloons. The tank has a volume of 124.0 L and a pressur

amm1812

Answer:

She lost 50.88 moles

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The volume of the tank = 124.0 L

The initial pressure = 104.0 atm

The temperature = 24.0 °C = 297 K

The pressure drops to 94.0 atm

The temperature stays constant at 297 K

Step 2: Calculate the initial number of moles

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒with p = the initial pressure = 104.0 atm

⇒with V = the initial volume = 124.0 L

⇒with n = the initial number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature= 297 K

n = (104.0*124.0)/(0.08206*297)

n = 529.14 moles

Step 3: Calculate final number of moles

p*V = n*R*T

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

⇒with p = the initial pressure = 94.0 atm

⇒with V = the initial volume = 124.0 L

⇒with n = the initial number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒ with T = the temperature= 297 K

n = (94.0*124.0)/(0.08206*297)

n = 478.26 moles

Step 4: Calculate the difference of moles

529.14 moles - 478.26 moles = 50.88 moles

She lost 50.88 moles

Explain what a scientific theory is, and what is necessary to make a theory strong and well supported?

Anna35 [415]

in order for a scientific theory to become a scientific law it needs to be tested with generations of data to confirm that it is really true.

How can endangered species be saved ?

labwork [276]

Answer:

There are lots of methods.

Explanation:

Usually, animals like pandas live a shorter lifespan in the wild than in captivity. A little fact, there is only one brown panda in the entire world, so it would be very, very rare to see one. The Smithsonian National Zoo, for example, are working to protect pandas, as well as other species.

Answer:

(1) atomic numbers

Explanation:

The observed regularities in the properties of the elements on the periodic table are periodic functions of their atomic numbers.

Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
The periodic law states that "the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic number".
Elements on the periodic table are arranged based on the atomic numbers they contain.
The number of positively charged particles in an atom is the atomic number.
