Answer:

1.40 × 10⁻⁴ M

Explanation:

Let's consider the solution of magnesium hydroxide.

Mg(OH)₂(s) = Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

We can relate the solubility (S) of the hydroxide with the solubility product (Ksp) using an ICE chart.

    Mg(OH)₂(s) = Mg²⁺(aq) + 2 OH⁻(aq)

I                            0                   0

C                         +S                +2S

E                           S                  2S

The solubility product is:

Ksp = [Mg²⁺] × [OH⁻]² = S × (2S)² = 4 S³

S = ∛(Ksp/4) = ∛(1.1 × 10⁻¹¹/4)

S = 1.40 × 10⁻⁴ M

Answer:

S = 0.00014 moles /L = 1.4 * 10^-4 moles/L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = 25.0 °C

Ksp = 1.1 * 10^-11

Step 2: The balanced equation

Mg(OH)2(s) ⇆ Mg^2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq)

Step 3: Define Ksp

[Mg(OH)2 = 1.11 * 10^-11 = S

[Mg^2+] = S

[OH-] = 2S

Ksp = [Mg^2+]*[OH-]²

Ksp = S * (2S)²

1.1 * 10^-11 = 4S³

S³ = 2.75 * 10^-12

S = 0.00014 moles /L

A deck of cards has dimensions 8.9cm x 5.72cm x 1.82 cm. What is the volume of the deck in cubic centimeters?
arsen [322]

Answer:

92.65256 cm^3

Explanation:

To find this, we can simply multiply all three dimensions to get the answer in cubic centimeters, and we get the answer above. If you want to be more specific, we can go by the sigfig rule and the answer would be rounded to 93 cm^3.

The pH of an aqueous solution is 4.32. What is the [OH–]?
Molodets [167]
2.10 x 10^-10 M. Ans


pH + pOH = 14
Where, pOH is the power of hydroxide ion concentration and pH is the power of concetration of the H+ ion.
Now, pOH = 14 - 4.32
= 9.68
Now, the concentration of [H+] is 10-7 M, then pH is 7 and for [OH-] = 10-7 M, the pOH is also 7.

Now, pOH = -log[OH-]
[OH-] = 10^- pOH
= 10^-9.68
= 2.10 x 10^-10 M

Several amino acids are intermediates of the urea cycle, having side ammonia groups that join with free carbon dioxide (CO2) and
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

A. Arginine

Explanation:

The urea cycle is the cycle of the biochemical reactions which produces urea from ammonia.

Steps of the urea cycle:

  • Carbamoyl phosphate, in presence of ornithine transcarbamoylase is converted to citrulline by the denotation of carbamoyl phosphate groupto ornithine and a phosphate group is released.
  • Amino group of the aspartate and carbonyl group of the citrulline are condensed to form argininosuccinate in the presence of enzyme, argininosuccinate synthetase. This condensation reaction is ATP dependent.
  • <u>Argininosuccinate then undergoes cleavage by the argininosuccinase to form intermediate, arginine and fumarate.</u>
  • <u>Arginine is then cleaved by the arginase to form urea as well as ornithine.</u> Ornithine is transported back to mitochondria to begin urea cycle again.
