Answer:

When an atom gains/loses an electron, the atom becomes charged, and is called an ion. Gaining an electron results in a negative charge, so the atom is an anion

What mass of iron is formed when 10 grams of carbon react with 80 grams of iron iii oxide?

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

55.85 grams of Fe is formed.

Explanation:

Identify the reaction:

2Fe₂O₃ + 3C → 4Fe + 3CO₂

Identify the limiting reactant, previously determine the mol of each reactant

(mass / molar mass)

10 g / 12 g/m = 0.83 moles C

80 g / 159.7 g /m = 0.500 moles Fe₂O₃

2 moles of oxide need 3 moles of C, to react

0.5 moles of oxide, will need ( 0.5 . 3)/ 2 = 0.751 mol

I have 0.83 moles of C, so C is the excess.

The limiting is the oxide.

3 mol of C need 2 mol of oxide to react

0.83 mol of C, will need (0.83 . 2)/ 3 = 0.553 mol of oxide, and I only have 0.5 (That's why Fe₂O₃ is the limiting)

Ratio is 2:4 (double)

If I have 0.5 moles of oxide, I will produce the double, in the reaction.

1 mol of Fe, will be produce so its mass is 55.85 g

The solubility product of PbI2 is 7.9x10^-9. What is the molar solubility of PbI2 in distilled water?

Agata [3.3K]

<u>Answer:</u> The molar solubility of $PbI_2$ is $1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Solubility is defined as the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent at equilibrium.

Solubility product is defined as the product of concentration of ions present in a solution each raised to the power its stoichiometric ratio.

The balanced equilibrium reaction for the ionization of calcium fluoride follows:

$PbI_2\rightleftharpoons Pb^{2+}+2I^-$

s 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be:

$K_{sp}=[Pb^{2+}][I^-]^2$

We are given:

$K_{sp}=7.9\times 10^{-9}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$7.9\times 10^{-9}=(s)\times (2s)^2\\\\7.9\times 10^{-9}=4s^3\\\\s=1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$

Hence, the molar solubility of $PbI_2$ is $1.25\times 10^{-3}mol/L$
