Explain the reaction between metallic hydroxides and a dilute acid?

1 answer:

7 0

The hydroxide (OH) in the metallic hydroxide will react with the hydrogen in an acid to form H2O. The remaining ions will combine to form a salt. Therefore a metal hydroxide and an acid will form a salt + water.

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In each row check off the boxes that apply to the underlined reactant. The underlined reactant acts as a... (check all that apply)

1. $HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COO^-(aq)+NH_4^+(aq)$

here underlined is $HCH_3CO_2$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

2. $BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)$

Here underlined is $NH_3$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

3. $HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)$

Here underlined is $C_2H_5NH_2$

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

Answer: 1. Brønsted-Lowry acid

2. Lewis base

3. Brønsted-Lowry base

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

1. $HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CO^{2-}(aq)+NH_4^+aq)$

As $HCH_3CO_2(aq)$ is donating a proton , it acts as a bronsted acid.

2. $BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)$

As $NH_3$ contains a lone pair of electron on nitrogen , it can easily donate electrons to $BH_3$ and act as lewi base.

3. $HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)$

As $C_2H_5NH_2(aq)$ is accepting a proton , it acts as a bronsted base.

Which are characteristics of the speed of light? Check all that apply.

valkas [14]

- The speed of light is the speed electromagnetic waves travel. The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s in space. The speed of light is the same in all matter. The speed of higher frequency light slows down more than lower frequency light in matter.

If a system has a reaction quotient of 2.13 ✕ 10−15 at 100°C, what will happen to the concentrations of COBr2, CO, and Br2 as th

qaws [65]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Consider the following equilibrium at 100°C.

$COBr_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Br_2(g)$

$K_c=4.74\times 10^4$

Concentration at equilibrium:

$[COBr_2]=1.58\times 10^{-6}M$

$[Co]=2.78\times 10^{-3}M$

$[Br_2]=2.51\times 10^{-5}M$

If a system has a reaction quotient of 2.13 × 10⁻¹⁵ at 100°c, what will happen to the concentrations of COBr₂, Co and Br₂ as the reaction proceeds to equilibrium?

Answer : The concentrations of Co and Br₂ decreases and the concentrations of COBr₂ increases.

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$COBr_2(g)\rightleftharpoons CO(g)+Br_2(g)$

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q=\frac{[CO][Br_2]}{[COBr_2]}$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(2.78\times 10^{-3})\times (2.51\times 10^{-5})}{(1.58\times 10^{-6})}=4.42\times 10^{-2}$

The given equilibrium constant value is, $K_c=4.74\times 10^4$

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

There are 3 conditions:

When $Q>K_c$ that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored.

When $Q$ that means reactant > product. So, the reaction is product favored.

When $Q=K_c$ that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium.

From the above we conclude that, the $Q$ that means product < reactant. So, the reaction is product favored that means reaction must shift to the product (right) to be in equilibrium.

Hence, the concentrations of Co and Br₂ decreases and the concentrations of COBr₂ increases.
