When bases dissolve in water they release what type of negative ion?

Chemistry

Leto [7]3 years ago
4 0
A base generally releases a hydroxide ion (OH-) when dissolved in water. 

There are exceptions, such as ammonia NH3, which acts as a base but does not produce OH- ions. There are three definitions of acids and bases (Arrhenius, Bronsted-Lowry, and Lewis) and each one looks at acid/base characteristics differently. OH- donation is the Arrhenius definition.

During the naval battles of the South Pacific in World War II, the U.S. Navy produced smoke screens by spraying titanium tetrach
hammer [34]

Explanation:

The reaction given is;

TiCl4 + H2O --> TiO2 + HCl

The reaction is not balanced, upon balancing it is given as;

TiCl4 + 2H2O → TiO2 + 4HCl  

a. How many moles of H2O are needed to react with 6.50 moles of TiCl4?

From the reaction;

1 mol of TiCl4 requires 2 mol of H2O

6.50 mol of TiCl4 would require x mol of H2O

1 = 2

6.5 = x

x = 6.5 * 2 / 1 = 13.0 mol

b. How many moles of HCl are formed when 8.44 moles of TiCl4 react?

From the equation of the reaction;

1 mol of TiCl4 reacts to form 4 mol of HCl

8.44 mol of TiCl4 reacts to form x mol of HCl

1 = 4

8.44 = x

x = 8.44 * 4 / 1 = 33.76 mol
