Answer:

3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

Explanation:

We can <u>define ppm as mg of Pb²⁺ per liter of water</u>.

We<u> calculate the mass of lead ion in 100 mL of water</u>:

  • 100.0 mL ⇒ 100.0 / 1000 = 0.100 L
  • 0.100 L * 0.0080 ppm = 8x10⁻⁴ mg Pb⁺²

Now we <u>convert mass of lead to moles</u>, using its molar mass:

  • 8x10⁻⁴ mg ⇒ 8x10⁻⁴ / 1000 = 8x10⁻⁷ g
  • 8x10⁻⁷ g Pb²⁺ ÷ 207.2 g/mol = 3.861x10⁻⁹ mol Pb⁺²

If you find that the hydrogen alpha line in a star’s spectrum occurs at a wavelength of 656.45 nm, what is the star’s approximat
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The star’s approximate radial velocity is 68.52 km/s

Explanation:

To solve the

The formula is

\frac{\lambda-\lambda_{rw}}{\lambda_{rw}} = \frac{v_r}{c} where

v_r = velocity of the star

λ = Star's spectrum wavelength = 656.45 nm

\lambda_{rw} = Rest wavelength = 656.30 nm

c = Speed of light = 299 792 458 m / s

Therefore we have

\frac{656.45-656.30}{656.30} =\frac{v_r}{299 792 458} or v_r = 68518.7699 m/s or 68.52 km/s

Complete this equation for the dissociation of the electrolyte NaCl(aq). Omit water from the equation because it is understood t
ella [17]

1. Answer;

Equation;

-NaCl(aq) → Na{+}(aq) + Cl{-}(aq)

Explanation;

-The polar property of water allows ionic compounds such as sodium chloride to dissolve in water. (sodium chloride is an ionic compound).

-Sodium chloride dissociates in water into sodium ions and chloride ions as shown by the equation. Water molecules surrounds the negatively charged chloride ions and positive sodium ions and pulls them away into solution.

2. Answer;

Equation;

Fe(ClO4)3(aq) → Fe 3+(aq) + 3ClO4 - (aq)

Explanation;

Iron (iii) perchlorate (Fe(ClO4)3 dissociates in water into iron (iii) ion and perchlorate ion. Iron (iii) ion is positively charged while the perchlorate ion is negatively charged, they are pulled apart by the polar water molecules, a process called dissociation.

The value of ka for nitrous acid (hno2) at 25 ∘c is 4.5×10−4. what is the value of δg at 25 ∘c when [h+] = 5.9×10−2m , [no2-] =
LuckyWell [14K]
To get the value of ΔG we need to get first the value of ΔG°:

when ΔG° = - R*T*㏑K

when R is constant in KJ = 0.00831 KJ

T is the temperature in Kelvin = 25+273 = 298 K

and K is the equilibrium constant = 4.5 x 10^-4

so by substitution:

∴ ΔG° = - 0.00831 * 298 K * ㏑4.5 x 10^-4

        = -19 KJ

then, we can now get the value of ΔG when:

ΔG = ΔG° - RT*㏑[HNO2]/[H+][NO2]

when ΔG° = -19 KJ

and R is constant in KJ = 0.00831 

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 298 K

and [HNO2] = 0.21 m & [H+] = 5.9 x 10^-2 & [NO2-] = 6.3 x 10^-4 m  

so, by substitution:

ΔG = -19 KJ - 0.00831 * 298K* ㏑(0.21/5.9x10^-2*6.3 x10^-4 )

       = -40

The mineral enargite is 48.41% cu, 19.02% as, and 32.57% s by mass. what is the empirical formula of enargite?
LuckyWell [14K]
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound. 
Assuming for 100 g of the compound 
                                Cu                                 As                             S
mass                      48.41 g                          19.02 g                      32.57 g
number of moles    48.41 / 63.5 g/mol      19.02 / 75 g/mol        32.57 / 32 g/mol 
                                = 0.762 mol                = 0.2536 mol            = 1.018 mol 
divide by the least number of moles 
                               0.762 / 0.2536             0.2536 / 0.2536         1.018 / 0.2536
                               = 3.00                          = 1.00                         = 4.01
once they are rounded off 
Cu - 3
As - 1
S - 4
therefore empirical formula is Cu₃AsS₄

space capsules operate with an oxygen content of about 34%. assuming a total pressure of 780 mm Hg in the space capsule, what is
Lemur [1.5K]

265.2 mmHg is the partial pressure of oxygen in 780 mmHg of total pressure.

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas is defined as the individual pressure of the gas in total mixture. In an ideal gas all the constituent gases have partial pressure some of which will give total pressure of the gas.

The partial pressure of a gas is calculated by

total pressure x mole fraction of the gas.

Mole fraction of the oxygen present is 0.34 as it is 34% of the total gas.

\frac{34}{100} = 0.34  is the mole fraction

Total pressure is given as 780 mm Hg

The partial pressure can be calculated using the above formula:

Putting the values in equation:

780 x 0.34

= 265.2 mm Hg is the partial pressure of oxygen.
