Why do ionic compounds have high melting points?

Chemistry
1 answer:

4 0
These oppositely charged compounds are strongly held by electrostatic forces of attraction as these be together for a long time the rise in temparature occurs so that the the melting points rises in them.

Write a balanced chemical equation for the standard formation reaction of solid calcium hydroxide .
AveGali [126]

Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) can actually be formed by the reaction of Calcium Oxide (CaO) with water (H2O). The complete balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>CaO  +  H2O  -->  Ca(OH)2</span>

 

<span>The subscript 2 in (OH) means that there are 2 O and 2 H on the product side. Hence, the equation is balanced already.</span>

Which compound would produce an acidic aqueous solution? Which compound would produce an acidic aqueous solution? RbH C2H2 PH3 C
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:  Option (e) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound that will dissociate in water or an aqueous solution to give hydrogen ions(H^{+}) is known as an acidic substance.

When RbH is dissolved in aqueous solution then it dissociates as follows.

RbH \rightarrow Rb^{+} + H^{-}.

C_{2}H_{2} is non-polar in nature. So, it will not dissociate into ions when dissolved in an aqueous solution.

PH_{3} will also remain neutral and does not dissociate into ions.  

CaH_{2} when dissolved in water then it dissociates as follows.

CaH_{2} \rightarrow Ca^{2+} + 2H^{-}  

Whereas when HF is dissolved in aqueous solution then the reaction will be as follows.

HF \rightarrow H^{+} + F^{-}

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options HF is the compound which will produce an acidic aqueous solution.
