At 1.00 atm, the solubility of O2 in water is 2.18 x 10-3 M at 0 °C and 1.26 x 10-3 M at 25 °C. What volume of O2(g) measured at 25 °C and 1.00 atm, is expelled when 515 mL of water saturated with O2 is heated from 0 to 25 °C?
A saturated solution prepared at 70 °C contains 32.0 g CuSO4 per 100.0 g solution. A 335 g sample of this solution is then cooled to 0 °C and CuSO4 · 5 H2O crystallizes out. If the concentration of a saturated solution at 0 °C is 12.5 g CuSO4/100 g soln, what mass of would be obtained? Note
How would you write the reaction quotient expression for Cu(s) + 2 H+(aq) → Cu2+(aq) + H2(g) ? Write this first in terms of activities and then convert to pressures and concentrations.
Based on these descriptions, write a balanced equation and the corresponding expression for each reversible reaction.(a) Carbonyl fluoride, COF2(g), decomposes into gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous carbon tetrafluoride.(b) Copper metal displaces silver(I) ion from aqueous solution, producing
These equilibrium concentrations are measured at 298 K: [Cu+]eq = 0.148 M, [Sn2+]eq = 0.124 M, and [Sn4+]eq = 0.176 M. What is the equilibrium concentration of Cu2+(aq)?
(A) In another experiment also carried out at 298 K, equal concentrations of [Cu+], [Sn4+], and [Sn2+] are found to be in equilibrium. What must be the equilibrium concentration of [Cu2+]?(B) At 25 °C, K = 9.14 x 10-6 for the reaction 2 Fe3+(aq) + Hg22+(aq) ⇌ 2Fe2+(aq) + 2 Hg2+(aq). If the
