Answer:

C. CuS and PbS  

Explanation:

1. Calculate [H₃O⁺]

pH = 1.00  

\rm [H_{3}O^{+}] = 10^{-pH} = \text{0.100 mol/L}

2. Calculate the concentration of S²⁻

H₂S + 2H₂O ⇌ S²⁻ + 2H₃O⁺; Kc =  1.1 × 10⁻²⁰

K_{\text{c}} = \dfrac{\text{[S$^{2-}$][H$_{3}$O$^{+}$]}^{2}}{\text{[H$_{2}$S ]}}\\\\\text{[S$^{2-}$]} = \dfrac{K_{\text{a}}\text{[H$_{2}$S]}}{\text{[H}_{3}\text{O}^{+}]^{2}}= \dfrac{1.1 \times 10^{-20} \times 0.10}{0.100^{2}} = 1.1 \times 10^{-19}

3. Calculate Qsp for the sulfides

(a) CuS

CuS ⇌ Cu²⁺ + S²⁻; Ksp = 6.0 × 10⁻³⁶

Qsp = [Cu²⁺][S²⁻] = (0.10)(1.0 × 10⁻¹⁹) = 1.0 × 10⁻²⁰

Qsp > Ksp, so a precipitate of CuS will form.

(b) PbS

PbS ⇌ Pb²⁺ + S²⁻; Ksp = 2.5 × 10⁻²⁷

Qsp = [Pb²⁺][S²⁻] = (0.10)(1.0 × 10⁻¹⁹) = 1.0 × 10⁻²⁰

Qsp > Ksp, so a precipitate of PbS will form.

(iii) NiS

NiS ⇌ Ni²⁺ + S²⁻; Ksp = 3.0 × 10⁻¹⁹

Qsp = [Ni²⁺][S²⁻] = (0.10)(1.0 × 10⁻¹⁹) = 1.0 × 10⁻²⁰

Qsp < Ksp, so a precipitate will not form.

If the wavelength of purple light is 400 x 10^-9 m, what is the frequency?
FromTheMoon [43]

The frequency : a) 7.5 x 10¹⁴ /s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Radiation energy is absorbed by photons

The energy in one photon can be formulated as

\large{\boxed{\bold{E\:=\:h\:.\:f}}}

Where

h = Planck's constant (6,626.10⁻³⁴ Js)

f = Frequency of electromagnetic waves  (/s or Hz)

f = c / λ

c = speed of light

= 3.10⁸  m/s

λ = wavelength

The wavelength(λ) of purple light is 400 x 10⁻⁹ m, so the frequency :

\tt f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3.10^8~m/s}{4.10^{-7}m}\\\\f=\boxed{\bold{7.5.10^{14}}/s}
