Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Salts are produced from the reaction of an acid and a base. In general ...

Acid + Base => Salt + Weak Electrolyte

Acids from the 'Arrhenius Definition' contain an 'ionizable' hydrogen (-H). Such as, HCl, HBr, HI, HNO₃, HClO₄, HF, etc.

Bases from the 'Arrhenius Definition' contain an 'ionizable' hydroxide (-OH). Such as, LiOH, NaOH, KOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)₂, etc.

When the acid and base react, they proceed by what is known as a 'Double Replacement Reaction' or 'Metathesis Reaction'. In the process, the ions of the reactant compounds exchange positions such that a 'Driving Force' compound is formed on the product side. The Driving Force compound is <u>always</u> on the product side of the equation and is a compound that takes one of three forms => A precipitating salt, a compound of a weak acid or weak base (weaker than the starting acid or base) or gas decomposition product (~ vinegar + backing soda rxn => CO₂ gas).

For your problem, split the compound into cations and anions. You can usually tell which is which by using this format on formulas like those listed in your question => reading formula from left to right, place an imaginary line after the 1st metal => this metal will be the cation & the remaining formula will be the anion.

KBr => K | Br => K (Potassium) is the cation (K⁺) and Br (Bromide) is the anion (Br⁻)

KBr => K⁺ + Br⁻

Now. Apply this rule => Add 'H' to anion => HBr,  then add 'OH' to cation => KOH.

HBr is the acid and KOH is the base. Therefore ...        

Acid + Base => Salt + Wk Electrolyte

HBr + KOH => KBr + H₂O (note how ions of reactants exchange places to form products).

So, KBr comes from the reaction of acid HBr and base KOH.

HBr + KOH => KBr + H₂O

To determine the acid and base origins of LiCl and NaF, use the same logic. Hope this helps. Doc :-)

Which statement is part of the 3R rule?
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The 3R rule states that Radial cracks form a Right angle on the Reverse side of the force. This rule enables an examiner to determine readily the side on which a window or pane of glass was broken.

How would you prepare 100 ml of 0.4 M MgSO4 from a stock solution of 2 M MgSO4?
miss Akunina [59]
OK, so to answer this question, you will simply use the molality equation which is as follows:
<span>M1V1 = M2V2 
In the givens you have:
M1 = 2M
V1 is the unknown
M2 = 0.4M
V2 = 100 ml

</span>plug in the givens in the above equation:
<span>2 x V1 = 0.4 x 100 
</span>therefore:
V1 = 20 ml

Based on this: you should take 20 ml of the 2 M solution and make volume exactly 100 ml in a volumetric flask by diluting in water.

Using the law of conservation of energy what is the kinetic energy at D
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed - only converted from one form of energy to another.

Explanation:

This means that a system always has the same amount of energy, unless it's added from the outside.
