(b) Addition of NaCl increases the concentration of Cl- in solution. (c) Addition of NaCl increases the concentration of in solution. (d) Addition of Ag+ results in the precipitation of AgCl. (e) Addition of solid NaNO3 to the solution without change in volume does not change [Ag+] or [Cl-].arrow_forwardConsider the system 4NH3(g)+3O2(g)2N2(g)+6H2O(l)H=1530.4kJ (a) How will the amount of ammonia at equilibrium be affected by 1. removing O2(g)? 2. adding N2(g)? 3. adding water? 4. expanding the container at constant pressure? 5. increasing the temperature?

Each bulb is periodically opened and analyzed for iodine formation by titration with sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3. I2(aq)+2S2O32(aq)S4O62(aq)+2 I(aq)It is determined that when equilibrium is reached, 37.0 mL of 0.200 M Na2S2O3 is required to titrate the iodine.

After equilibrium is established, will there be • no precipitate? • a precipitate of BaCO3 only? • a precipitate of CaCO3 only? • a precipitate of both CaCO3 and BaCO3? Assume that the volume of the solution is still 500.0 mL after the addition of the salts.arrow_forward
- How is the strength of an acid related to the position of its ionization equilibrium? Write the equations for the dissociation (ionization) of HCI, HNO3, and HClO4in water. Since all these acids are strong acids, what does this indicate about the basicity of the Cl-, NO3, and ClO4ions?
