(i) Silver tarnishes in the presence of hydrogen sulfide (produced by rotten eggs) and oxygen because of the reaction below: 4Ag + 2H2S + O2 → 2Ag2S + 2H2O How many grams of Ag2S could be obtained from a mixture of 0.95 g Ag, 0.140 g H2S and 0.08 g O2 ? (ii) At 20°C the solubility limit of silver(I)sulfate (Ag2SO4) is 0.800 g/100 mL. What is the molarity of such a solution? (iii) What volume in mL of concentrated H2SO4 (18.0 M) must be used to prepare 400 mL of 3.0 M H2SO4 solution?
Ionic Equilibrium
Chemical equilibrium and ionic equilibrium are two major concepts in chemistry. Ionic equilibrium deals with the equilibrium involved in an ionization process while chemical equilibrium deals with the equilibrium during a chemical change. Ionic equilibrium is established between the ions and unionized species in a system. Understanding the concept of ionic equilibrium is very important to answer the questions related to certain chemical reactions in chemistry.
Arrhenius Acid
Arrhenius acid act as a good electrolyte as it dissociates to its respective ions in the aqueous solutions. Keeping it similar to the general acid properties, Arrhenius acid also neutralizes bases and turns litmus paper into red.
Bronsted Lowry Base In Inorganic Chemistry
Bronsted-Lowry base in inorganic chemistry is any chemical substance that can accept a proton from the other chemical substance it is reacting with.
