Answer:

Adding a solution containing an anion that forms an insoluble salt with only one of the metal ions.

Explanation:

The student have in solution Ag⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions but he just want to analyze the silver, that means he need to separate ions.

Centrifuging the solution to isolate the heavier ions <em>FALSE </em>Centrifugation allows the separation of a suspension but Ag⁺ and Cu²⁺ are both soluble in water.

Adding enough base solution to bring the pH up to 7.0 <em>FALSE </em>At pH = 7,0 these ions are soluble in water and its separation will not be possible.

Adding a solution containing an anion that forms an insoluble salt with only one of the metal ions <em>TRUE </em>For example, the addition of Cl⁻ will precipitate the Ag⁺ as AgCl(s) allowing its separation.

Evaporating the solution to recover the dissolved nitrates. <em>FALSE</em> . Thus, you will obtain the nitrates of these ions but will be mixed doing impossible its separation.

I hope it helps!

The easiest way to approximate ph level is the ph paper because there are no exprimentation required and it is very handy. so it is the best way to approximate the ph level of a lake, especially when you are outdoors, and it is just an initial reading of the ph. so ph paper will do.

How many known elements have atoms, in their ground-state, with valence electrons whose quantum numbers are n = 5 and l = 1?a. 3
Goshia [24]

Answer:

c. 6.

Explanation:

Looking at the description given in the question, the elements involved must belong to the p- block of the periodic table and must be in period 5. They also must possess valence electrons in the 5p- orbital.

Now if we look at the p- block of period 5, the following elements satisfy these  requirements; Sr, In, Sn, Sb, Te and I.

Hence there are six of such elements.

Find the mass in grams of 1.40x10^23 molecules of n2
mina [271]
<span>Avogadro's number represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles. We calculate as follows:

</span>1.40x10^23 molecules of N2 ( 1 mol / 6.022 x 10^23 molecules ) ( 28.02 g / mol ) = 6.51 g N2

A vessel contains Ar(g) at a high pressure. Which of the following statements best helps to explain why the measured pressure is
Luda [366]

Answer:

4. The combined volume of the Ar atoms is too large to be negligible compared with the total volume of the container.

Explanation:

Deviations from ideality are due to intermolecular forces and to the nonzero volume of the molecules themselves. At infinite volume, the volume of the molecules themselves is negligible compared with the infinite volume the gas occupies.

However, the volume occupied by the gas molecules must be taken into account. Each <u>molecule does occupy a finite, although small, intrinsic volume.</u>

The non-zero volume of the molecules implies that instead of moving in a given volume V they are limited to doing so in a smaller volume. Thus, the molecules will be closer to each other and repulsive forces will dominate, resulting in greater pressure than the one calculated with the ideal gas law, that means, without considering the volume occupied by the molecules.
