Answer:

D. Cd2+

Explanation:

The metal ions are classified into four groups which is based on their solubility.

Group II cations are the cations which are based on the solubility of the Sulphides.

Group II (Cu^{2+}, Bi^{3+}, Cd^{2+}, Hg^{2+}, As^{3+}, Sb^{3+}, Sn^{4+}) cations are the cations which produce very insoluble sulfides.

So, among the given options,  Cd^{2+} is the only cation which comes in Group II and thus, it will precipitate.

How many grams of hydrogen are produced if 30.0 g of zinc reacts?
alekssr [168]
<span>0.925 grams if using hydrochloric acid in the reaction. 0.462 grams if using sulfuric acid in the reaction. 0.000 grams if using nitric acid in the reaction. Assuming you're using HCl or a similar acid for this reaction, the equation for the reaction is: Zn + 2 HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2 So each mole of zinc used, produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas, or 2 moles of hydrogen atoms. So we need to look up the atomic weights of both zinc and hydrogen. Atomic weight zinc = 65.38 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Moles zinc = 30.0 g / 65.38 g/mol = 0.458855919 mol Since we produce 2 moles of hydrogen atoms per mole of zinc, multiply by 2 and the atomic weight of hydrogen to get the mass of hydrogen produced. So 0.458855919 * 2 * 1.00794 = 0.92499847 grams. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.925 grams. To show the assumption of the acid used, the balanced equation for sulfuric acid would be Zn2 + H2SO4 ==> Zn(SO4)2 + H2 Which means that for every mole of zinc used, 1 mole of hydrogen gas is generated (half that produced via hydrochloric acid). If nitric acid were used, the reaction is 4Zn + 10HNO3 ==> 4Zn(NO3)2 + N2O + 5H2O Which means that NO hydrogen gas is generated. The only justification for assuming hydrochloric acid is used is that it's a fairly common acid that's easy to obtain. But as shown above with 2 alternative acids, the amount of hydrogen gas generated is very dependent upon the exact chemical reaction occurring and asking "How many grams of hydrogen are produced if 30.0 g of zinc reacts?" is a rather silly question unless you specify EXACTLY what the reaction is.</span>

A student builds a model of a race car. The scale is 1:15. In the scale model, the car is 8 cm tall.How tall is the actual car?
Xelga [282]

let the actual height of car be x

now, according to question,

  • \dfrac{1}{15}  =  \dfrac{8}{x}

  • x = 15 \times 8

  • x = 120 \:  \: cm

  • height \:  \: of \:  \: car   =   120 \:   cm \:  \: or \:  \: 1.2 \:  \: m

You have a 16.0-oz. (473-mL) glass of lemonade with a concentration of 2.66 M. The lemonade sits out on your counter for a coupl
salantis [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The new concentration of lemonade is 3.90 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}     .....(1)

Molarity of lemonade solution = 2.66 M

Volume of solution = 473 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

2.66M=\frac{\text{Moles of lemonade}\times 1000}{473}\\\\\text{Moles of lemonade}=\frac{2.66\times 473}{1000}=1.26mol

Now, calculating the new concentration of lemonade by using equation 1:

Moles of lemonade = 1.26 moles

Volume of solution = (473 - 150) mL = 323 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{New concentration of lemonade}=\frac{1.26\times 1000}{323}\\\\\text{New concentration of lemonade}=3.90M

Hence, the new concentration of lemonade is 3.90 M

. Calculate the mass of O2 produced if 3.450 g potassium chlorate is completely decomposed by heating in presence of a catalyst
Vesnalui [34]
 <span>2 KClO3(s) → 3 O2(g) + 2 KCl(s) 

</span><span>Note: MnO2 (Manganese Dioxide) is not part of the reaction. A catalyst lowers the activation energy and increases both forward and reverse reactions at equal rates. 
</span>
molar mass of KClO3 = 122.5
Moles of KClO3 =  3.45 / 122.55 = 0.028

Moles of O2 produce = \frac{3}{2} \times 0.028

= 0.042 moles

molar mass of O2 = 32

so, mass of O2 = 32 x 0.042  = 1.35 g

The equilibrium constant for the reaction sr(s) + mg2+(aq) ⇌ sr2+(aq) + mg(s) is 2.69 × 1012 at 25°c. calculate e o for a cell m
Mariulka [41]
Sr(s)+Mg²+(aq)→Sr²+(aq)+Mg(s)
Number of e-'s transfered are, n=2. Equilibrium constant,
K=2.69×10∧12
ΔG=-2.303RT logK
R=gasconstant=8.314J/mol-k
T= temperature in K= 25 oC=25+273=298K
The value we get ΔG = -70922.3J. But ΔG = -nFE
n= number of e-'s transfered in the reaction =2
F= farady = 96500C
E=potential of the cell is what?
∴E = ΔG.nF
=-(-70922.3)/2×96500)
=0.367v.
