Zolol [24]

Answer:

0°C.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the heating curve of water on the attached document, we can notice that at 0 °C the solid starts melting, which means that the melting point is reached. Melting point is known as a physical change whereby a solid changes to liquid by the addition of heat as it allows the molecules to separate to each other.

Best regards.

How many kilojoules (KJ) in 3.58 x 10^4 Calories?

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter B

Explanation:

Data

3.58 x 10⁴ cal to joules

1 calories --------------- 4.184 joules

3.58 x 10⁴ cal----------- x

x = ( 3.58 x 10⁴ x 4.184) / 1

x = 149787.2 joules

x = 1.5 x 10⁵ J

Calculate how many times more soluble Mg(OH)2 is in pure water Based on the given value of the Ksp, 5.61×10−11, calculate the ra

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

molar solubility in water = 2.412 * 10^-4 mol/L

molar solubility of NaOH in 0.130M = 3.32 * 10^-9 mol/L

Mg(OH)2 is a factor 0.73*10^5 more soluble in pure water than in 0.130 M NaOH

Explanation:

The Ksp refers to the partial solubilization of a mostly insoluble salt. This is an equilibrium process.

The equation for the solubilization reaction of Mg(OH)2 can be given as:

Mg(OH)2 (s) → Mg2+ (aq) + 2OH– (aq)

Ksp can then be given as followed:

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

Step 2: Calculate the solubility in water

Mg(OH)2 (s) → Mg2+ (aq) + 2OH– (aq)

The mole ratio Mg^2+ with OH- is 1:2

So there will react X of Mg^2+ and 2X of OH-

The concentration at equilibrium will be XM Mg^2+ and 2X OH-

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

5.61*10^-11 = X * (2X)² = X *4X² = 4X³

X = 2.412 * 10^-4 mol/L = solubility in water

Step 3: Calculate solubility in 0.130 M NaOH

The initial concentration of Mg^2+ = 0 M

The initial concentration of OH- = 0.130 M

The mole ratio Mg^2+ with OH- is 1:2

So there will react X of Mg^2+ and 2X +0.130 for OH-

The concentration at equilibrium will be XM Mg^2+ and 0.130 + 2X OH-

The value of "[OH–] + 2X" is, because the very small value of X, equal to the value of [OH–] .

Let's consider:

[Mg+2] = X

[OH] = 0.130

Ksp = [Mg^2+][OH^–]²

5.61*10^-11 = X *(0.130)²

5.61*10^-11 = X * (0.130)^2

X = 3.32*10^-9 = solubility in 0.130 M NaOH

Step 4: Calculate how many times Mg(OH)2 is better soluble in pure water.

(2.412*10^-4)/ (3.32*10^-9) = 0.73 * 10^5

Mg(OH)2 is a factor 0.73*10^5 more soluble in pure water than in 0.130 M NaOH
