We want to calculate the concentrations of all species in a 0.58 M Na 2 SO 3 (sodium sulfite) solution. The ionization constants
NeX [460]

Explanation:

Reaction equation is as follows.

      Na_{2}SO_{3}(s) \rightarrow 2Na^{+}(aq) + SO^{2-}_{3}(aq)

Here, 1 mole of Na_{2}SO_{3} produces 2 moles of cations.

[Na^{+}] = 2[Na_{2}SO_{3}] = 2 \times 0.58

                                  = 1.16 M

[SO^{2-}_{3}] = [Na_{2}SO_{3}] = 0.58 M

The sulphite anion will act as a base and react with H_{2}O to form HSO^{-}_{3} and OH^{-}.

As,     K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{2}}}

                       = \frac{10^{-14}}{6.3 \times 10^{-8}}

                       = 1.59 \times 10^{-7}

According to the ICE table for the given reaction,

          SO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons HSO^{-}_{3} + OH^{-}

Initial:        0.58             0              0

Change:     -x               +x             +x

Equilibrium: 0.58 - x     x               x

So,

        K_{b} = \frac{[HSO^{-}_{3}][OH^{-}]}{[SO^{2-}_{3}]}

 1.59 \times 10^{-7} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.58 - x}

        x^{2} = 1.59 \times 10^{-7} \times (0.58 - x)

                x = 0.0003 M

So,   x = [HSO^{-}_{3}] = [OH^{-}] = 0.0003 M

[SO^{2-}_{3}] = 0.58 - 0.0003

                     = 0.579 M

Now, we will use [HSO^{-}_{3}] = 0.0003 M

The reaction will be as follows.

              HSO^{2-}_{3} + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons H_{2}SO_{3} + OH^{-}

Initial:   0.0003

Equilibrium:  0.0003 - x        x             x

              K_{b} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}

        K_{b} = \frac{K_{w}}{K_{a_{1}}}

                      = \frac{10^{-14}}{1.4 \times 10^{-2}}

                      = 7.14 \times 10^{-13}

Therefore,  7.14 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{x^{2}}{0.0003 - x}

As,  x <<<< 0.0003. So, we can neglect x.

Therefore,  x^{2} = 7.14 \times 10^{-13} \times 0.0003

                              = 0.00214 \times 10^{-13}

                     x = 0.0146 \times 10^{-6}

x = [OH^{-}] = [H_{2}SO_{3}] = 1.46 \times 10^{-8}

    [H^{+}] = \frac{10^{-14}}{[OH^{-}]}

                = \frac{10^{-14}}{0.0003}

                = 3.33 \times 10^{-11} M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of spectator ion is 3.33 \times 10^{-11} M.

Find the empirical formula of the following compounds:
Aneli [31]

The empirical formula of the following compounds 0.903 g of phosphorus combined with 6.99 g of bromine.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound is the empirical formula of a chemical compound in chemistry. Sulfur monoxide's empirical formula, SO, and disulfur dioxide's empirical formula, S2O2, are two straightforward examples of this idea. As a result, both the sulfur and oxygen compounds sulfur monoxide and disulfur dioxide have the same empirical formula.

<h3>How to find the empirical formula?</h3>

Convert the given masses of phosphorus and bromine into moles by multiplying the reciprocal of their molar masses. The molar masses of phosphorus and bromine are 30.97 and 79.90 g/mol, respectively.

Moles phosphorus = 0.903 g phosphorus \frac{mol phosphorus}{ 30.97 g phosphorus}= 0.0293 mol

Moles bromine 6.99 g bromine\frac{mol bromine}{79.90 g bromine}=0.0875 mol

The preliminary formula for compound is P0.0293Bro.0875. Divide all the subscripts by the subscript with the smallest value which is 0.0293. The empirical formula is P1.00Br2.99 ≈ P₁Br3 or PBr3
