How does this equation help you to understand acids and bases: H+(aq) + OH-(aq)

Chemistry
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C. It shows you that the formation of water is a reversible reaction, which contains hydrogen and hydroxide ions.

Explanation:

The equation is

H₂O(ℓ) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

It also shows that water can behave as either an acid or a base, because it can produce both H⁺ and OH⁻ ions.

A and B are both wrong. Although the statements are correct, they don't say anything about acids and bases.

Write the chemical equation of the reaction with a change in colour​
Lelu [443]

Answer:

(i) Change in colour (ii) Change in temperature  (iii) Formation of precipitate

Explanation:

(i) Change in colour: Reaction between lead nitrate solution and potassium iodide solution. Pb(NO3)2(aq)+2KI → PbI2(s)+2KNO3(aq) In this reaction, colour changes from colourless to yellow. (ii)Change in temperature: Action of dilute sulphuric acid on zinc. Zn(s) + H2SO4(aq) → ZnSO4(aq) + H2 In this reaction, heat is evolved (iii) Formation of precipitate: Action of barium chloride on sodium sulphate. BaCl2(aq) +Na2SO4(aq) →  BaSO4(s) +2NaCl(aq) BaSO4(s)

Metamorphic rocks with a non-foliated texture show metamorphic change that involves ____.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

b.  growth in the size of the mineral grains

Explanation:

Non-foliated texture shown by a metamorphic change is depicted by growth in the size of the mineral grains.

  • Examples of non-foliated metamorphic rocks are quartzite and marble.
  • In these metamorphic rocks, mineral grains are not aligned with their long axis.
  • Non-foliated texture occurs under high temperature and low pressure conditions.
  • As minerals are able to grow, the size can be used to show a metamorphic change.
