A chemistry student is given 700. mL of a clear aqueous solution at 26.° C. He is told an unknown amount of a certain compound X is dissolved in the solution. The student allows the solution to cool to 26.° C. The solution remains clear. He then evaporates all of the water under vacuum. A precipitate remains. The student washes, dries and weighs the precipitate. It weighs 0.032 kg. Required:
Using only the information above, can you calculate the solubility of X in water at 22.0°C ? If you said yes, calculate it. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol and 2 significant digits.

The correct answer is - yes, 4.57 g of solute per 100 ml of solution

Explanation:

The correct answer is yes we can calculate the solubility of X in the water at 22.0°C. The salt will remain after the evaporate from the dissolved and cooled down at 26°C.

Then, the amount of solute dissolved in the 700 ml solution at 26°C is the weighed precipitate: 0.032 kg = 32 g.

Then solublity will be :

32. g solute / 700 ml solution = y / 100 ml solution

⇒ y = 32. g solute × 100 ml solution / 700 ml solution = 4.57 g.

Thus, the answer is 4.57 g of solute per 100 ml of solution.

assuming that your periodic table has eighteen columns, you should highlight   the four elements in the third column from the left of the table.

neutral atoms of elements after calcium contain d electrons. the energy of d orbitals of a particular main shell lies between the energy of the s and p orbitals of the next main shell. for example, electrons in the have energy higher than those in the orbital while lower than those of the orbital.

by the aufbau principle, electrons fill orbitals one at a time, starting from those of the lowest energy. the orbital is therefore filled right after orbitals and before orbitals.  

potassium has electron configuration and calcium . the s orbital of a main shell holds a maximum of two electrons. the next element would thus have the electron configuration and satisfy the requirements.

a neutral atom of the element contains three electrons on top of the most recent noble gas element. it should thus be placed in the third column of the periodic table. both scandium and yttrium would satisfy the conditions. an aufbau diagram indicates that the 4f orbital is filled before the 5d. however, it appears that exceptions exists for both lanthanum and actinium. neutral atoms of the two d-block elements also demonstrate the and should be highlighted as well.
