11. How did the solubility product constant Ksp of KHT in pure water compare to its solubility product constant Ksp of KHT in KCl solution? Are these results what you would expect? Why?

Explanation:

KHT is a salt which ionises in water as follows

KHT ⇄ K⁺ + HT⁻

Solubility product Kw= [ K⁺ ] [ HT⁻ ]

product of concentration of K⁺ and HT⁻ in water

In KCl solution , the solubility product of KHT will be decreased .

In KCl solution , there is already presence of K⁺  ion in the solution . So

in the equation  

[ K⁺ ] [ HT⁻ ]  = constant

when K⁺ increases [ HT⁻ ] decreases . Hence less of KHT dissociates due to which its  solubility decreases . It is called common ion effect . It is so because here the presence of common ion that is K⁺ in both salt to be dissolved and in solvent , results in decrease of solubility of the salt .

Hello!
 
The statement that best proves that the law of conservation is obeyed during this process is that The total mass of oxygen and carbon is equal to the total mass of carbon dioxide.

The chemical equation for the combustion reaction of coal in the carbon cycle is the following one:

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

From this simple chemical equation, we can conclude that if the Law of Conservation of Matter is obeyed in this reaction, the sum of the initial masses of Carbon and Oxygen before the reaction will be equal to the total amount of Carbon Dioxide formed by it, because they sum up to produce Carbon Dioxide.

Have a nice day!
