For the chemical reaction 2HBr(aq)+Ba(OH)2(aq)⟶2H2O(l)+BaBr2(aq) write the net ionic equation, including the phases.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

2H⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)  --> 2H2O(l)

Explanation:

2HBr(aq)+Ba(OH)2(aq)⟶2H2O(l)+BaBr2(aq)

We break the compounds into ions. Only compounds in the aqueous form can be turned into ions.

The ionic equation is given as;

2H⁺(aq)  +  2Br⁻(aq)  + Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)   --> 2H2O(l)  +  Ba²⁺(aq)  + 2Br⁻(aq)

Upon eliminating the spectator ions; The net equation is given as;

2H⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)  --> 2H2O(l)

Which alkane may be obtained by the reduction of 2-bromo propane
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

To reduce a haloalkane, it has to be eliminated first. This is because 2 bromopropanes are a saturated compound that can not be reduced by a saturated compound. Dehydrohalogenation of the haloalkanes into the form of propene and hydrogen bromide can lead to the elimination. The propene is then reduced to propane.
