A submarine fills a special storage area known as ballast with water in order to increase its density. This allows it to dive de

eper into the ocean. When a submarine needs to rise rapidly, compressed air is used to push the water out of the ballast. What effect does replacing the water in the ballast with air have on the submarine?

Answer:

The submarine will rise.

Explanation:

To get a submarine to surface, the main vents in the top of the tank are closed and high-pressure compressed air is blown into the ballast tanks, forcing the water out through the flood ports at the bottom of the tank. This increases the vessel's displacement.

Write the balanced equation for the equilibrium reaction for the dissociation ofsilver chloride in water, and write the K expres
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the the concentrations are not given, and not even the Ksp, we can solve this problem by setting up the chemical equation, the equilibrium constant expression and the ICE table only:

AgCl(s)\rightleftharpoons Ag^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

Next, the equilibrium expression according to the produced aqueous species as the solid silver chloride is not involved in there:

Ksp=[Ag^+][Cl^-]

And therefore, the ICE table, in which x stands for the molar solubility of the silver chloride:

       \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ AgCl(s)\rightleftharpoons Ag^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

I          -                   0             0

C        -                   +x           +x

E        -                    x             x

Which leads to the following modified equilibrium expression:

Ksp=x^2

Unfortunately, values were not given, and they cannot be arbitrarily assigned or assumed.

Will a precipitate of magnesium fluoride form when 300. mL of 1.1 × 10 –3 M MgCl 2 are added to 500. mL of 1.2 × 10 –3 M NaF? [K
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

No precipitate is formed.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the dissociation reaction of magnesium fluoride:

MgF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Mg^{2+}+2F^-

And the undergoing chemical reaction:

MgCl_2+2NaF\rightarrow MgF_2+2NaCl

We need to compute the yielded moles of magnesium fluoride, but first we need to identify the limiting reactant for which we compute the available moles of magnesium chloride:

n_{MgCl_2}=0.3L*1.1x10^{-3}mol/L=3.3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2

Next, the moles of magnesium chloride consumed by the sodium fluoride:

n_{MgCl_2}^{consumed}=0.5L*1.2x10^{-3}molNaF/L*\frac{1molCaCl_2}{2molNaF} =3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2

Thus, less moles are consumed by the NaF, for which the moles of formed magnesium fluoride are:

n_{MgF_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgCl_2*\frac{1molMgF_2}{1molMgCl_2}=3x10^{-4}molMgF_2

Next, since the magnesium fluoride to magnesium and fluoride ions is in a 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, the concentrations of such ions are:

[Mg^{2+}]=\frac{3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =3.75x10^{-4}M

[F^-]=\frac{2*3x10^{-4}molMg^{+2}}{(0.3+0.5)L} =7.5x10^{-4}M

Thereby, the reaction quotient is:

Q=(3.75x10^{-4})(7.5x10^{-4})^2=2.11x10^{-10}

In such a way, since Q<Ksp we say that the ions tend to be formed, so no precipitate is formed.

Regards.

Calculate the total pressure in a mixture of 8 g of dioxygen and 4 g of dihydrogen confined in a vessel of 1 dm8 at 27 ∘C. (R =
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Total pressure =  56.77 bar

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of dioxygen = 8 g

Mass of dihydrogen = 4 g

Volume of vessel = 1 dm³

Temperature = 27°C (27+273 = 300 K)

R = 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K

Total pressure = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of dioxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 8 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.25 mol

Pressure of dioxygen:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

P = 0.25 mol × 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K × 300 K / 1 dm³

P = 6.97 bar.dm³  /1 dm³

P = 6.97 bar

Number of moles of dihydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 2 mol

Pressure of dihydrogen:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

P = 2 mol × 0.083 bar.dm³ / mol.K × 300 K / 1 dm³

P = 49.8 bar.dm³  /1 dm³

P = 49.8 bar

Total pressure of mixture in a vessel:

Total pressure = P (O₂) + P(H₂)

Total pressure =  6.97 bar + 49.8 bar

Total pressure =  56.77 bar
