CaCO₃ partially dissociates in water as Ca²⁺ and CO₃²⁻. The balanced equation is,
CaCO₃(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)
Initial Y - -
Change -X +X +X
Equilibrium Y-X X X
Ksp for the CaCO₃(s) is 3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M²
Ksp = [Ca²⁺(aq)][CO₃²⁻(aq)]
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X * X
3.36 x 10⁻⁹ M² = X²
X = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M
Hence the solubility of CaCO₃(s) = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ M
= 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L
Molar mass of CaCO₃ = 100 g mol⁻¹
Hence the solubility of CaCO₃ = 5.79 x 10⁻⁵ mol/L x 100 g mol⁻¹
= 5.79 x 10⁻³ g/L
Answer:
According to Bohr, the amount of energy needed to move an electron from one zone to another is a fixed, finite amount. ... The electron with its extra packet of energy becomes excited, and promptly moves out of its lower energy level and takes up a position in a higher energy level. This situation is unstable, however.
Answer: C
Explanation: Pesticides protect our crops, but some studies show that they cause consumers to gain weight:)
To find the ratio of the the combination for the ion, write the charge of the cation as the subscript for the anion, and the charge of the anion as the subscript of the cation. This will make the charges effectively cancel and you will be left with a neutral ionic compound. Remember, that an ionic compound is made up of a metal and a nonmetal.
For Ca2+ and Cl-, you will get the neutral compound to be CaCl₂.
