The complete reaction for potassium hydroxide (KOH) and phosphoric acid (H3PO4) would yield products of water (H2O) and potassium phosphate (K3PO4).
3 KOH + H3PO4 ---> K3PO4 + 3 H2O
The net ionic equation would be obtained when you express the compounds in their ionic forms and eliminating the spectator ions. Spectator ions are the ions that appear in the reactant and product side. They do not actively participate the in the reaction.
3 K+ + 3 OH- + H3PO4 ---> 3K+ + PO4^3- + 3 H2O
H3PO4 is a weak acid so it does not dissociate. H2O is not an ionic compound so it also does not dissociate. Therefore, the spectator ion is the potassium ion K+. The net ionic reaction is
3 OH- + 3 H3PO4 ---> PO4^3- + 3 H2O
Answer:
what are the questions???
<span>I think the correct
answer is 109.5 degrees. The bond angle of a chlorite ion or ClO2- ion is 109.5
and has a bent shape. This is because of two groups of bonding electrons and
two lone pairs of electrons. Another example of a molecule that has a bent
molecular geometry is water. It results from its tetrahedral electron pair
shape.</span>
