g For the reaction Ag2S(s)⇌2Ag+(aq)+S2−(aq)Ag2S(s)⇌2Ag +(aq)+S2−(aq), Keq=2.4×10−4Keq=2.4×10−4, and the equilibrium concentration of sulfide ion is [S2−]=0.0023M[S2−]=0.0023M. What is [Ag+]atequilibrium?

0.32 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced reaction at equilibrium

Ag₂S(s) ⇌ 2 Ag⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

Step 2: Calculate the concentration of Ag⁺ at equilibrium

We will use the formula for the concentration equilibrium constant (Keq), which is equal to the product of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. It only includes gases and aqueous species.

Keq = [Ag⁺]² × [S²⁻]

[Ag⁺] = √{Keq / [S²⁻]}

[Ag⁺] = √{2.4 × 10⁻⁴ / 0.0023} = 0.32 M

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure  

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.
