The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Suppose 0.829 g of zinc chloride is dissolved in 100. mL of a 0.60 M aqueous solution of potassium carbonate. Calculate the final molarity of chloride anion in the solution. You can assume the volume of the solution doesn't change when the zinc chloride is dissolved in it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

The final molarity of chloride ion in the solution is 0.12 M

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For potassium carbonate:

Molarity of potassium carbonate solution = 0.60 M

Volume of solution = 100. mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.60M=\frac{\text{Moles of potassium carbonate}\times 1000}{100}\\\\\text{Moles of potassium carbonate}=\frac{(0.60\times 100)}{1000}=0.06mol$

For zinc chloride:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of zinc chloride = 0.829 g

Molar mass of zinc chloride = 136.3 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of zinc chloride}=\frac{0.829g}{136.3g/mol}=0.0061mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of potassium carbonate and zinc chloride follows:

$ZnCl_2+K_2CO_3\rightarrow ZnCO_3+2K^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)$

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc chloride reacts with 1 mole of potassium carbonate

So, 0.0061 moles of zinc chloride will react with = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0061=0.0061mol$ of potassium carbonate

As, given amount of potassium carbonate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, zinc chloride is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc chloride produces 2 moles of chloride ion

So, 0.0061 moles of zinc chloride will produce = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.0061=0.0122mol$ of acetate ion

Now, calculating the molarity of chloride ions in the solution by using equation 1:

Moles of chloride ion = 0.0122 moles

Volume of solution = 100. mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of chloride ions}=\frac{0.0122\times 1000}{100}\\\\\text{Molarity of chloride ions}=0.12M$

Hence, the final molarity of chloride ion in the solution is 0.12 M

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.
