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:
Sodium - malleable, soft, and shiny
Silicon - has properties of both metals and nonmetals
Bromine - highly reactive gas
Argon - non-reactive gas
Explanation:
Sodium is an alkaline metal. Just like other alkaline metals, it's malleable, soft, and shiny.
Silicon is a metalloid. Metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
Bromine a highly reactive chemical element. It is a fuming red-brown liquid at room temperature that evaporates to form a similarly coloured gas.
Argon is a noble gas. Just like other noble gases, it's non-reactive.
V = 60.0 g/ 0.70 g/mL = 85.7 mL Hope this helps! ;D
