Question

Which response gives the products of hydrolysis

Answer 1

Answer:

NH₃ and H⁺

Explanation:

The dissociation of NH₄Cl will lead to two ions , i.e. , NH⁴⁺  and Cl⁻ .

Hence , the reaction is -

NH₄Cl  →  NH⁴⁺   +   Cl⁻

We can conclude that  NH₄Cl can be formed from the ions , NH⁴⁺  and Cl⁻

Hence ,

According to the reaction ,

NH⁴⁺ + H₂O  ⇆  NH₃ + H₃O⁺

Therefore ,

The reactant that will lead to the formation of NH₄Cl are -  NH₃ and H⁺

Answer 2

Answer : The correct option is, (C) NH₃ + H⁺

Explanation:

Hydrolysis : It is defined as the chemical reaction in which the breakdown of compound takes place due to reaction with water.

As per question:

First ammonium chloride completely dissociates into ion.

$NH_4Cl(aq)\rightarrow NH_4^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)$

Now ammonium ion react with water to give ammonia and hydronium or hydrogen ion.

The balanced hydrolysis reaction will be:

$NH_4^++H_2O\rightarrow NH_3+H_3O^+$

Hence, the correct option is, (C) NH₃ + H⁺
