What does it mean for a weak acid to be in equilibrium?

Chemistry

Serhud [2]3 years ago

A) The acids only slightly dissociate and readily undergo reverse reaction.

for example:

acetic acid
CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq)

nitrous acid
HNO₂(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq)

carbonic acid
H₂CO₃(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + HCO₃⁻(aq)
HCO₃⁻(aq) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

c. Compound 2 is more acidic because its conjugate base is more resonance stabilized

Explanation:

You haven't told us what the compounds are, so let's assume that the formula of Compound 1 is HCOCH₂OH and that of Compound 2 is CH₃COOH.

The conjugate base of 2 is CH₃COO⁻. It has two important resonance contributors, and the negative charge is evenly distributed between the two oxygen atoms.

CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ CH₃COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

The stabilization of the conjugate base pulls the position of equilibrium to the right, so the compound is more acidic than 1.

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H

Explanation:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H is the equation of the reaction between metal and steam. Silver reacts with water (steam) forming silver oxide and hydrogen gas. When the metals react with steam it produces the solid metal oxide and hydrogen gas. On the surface o metals, a protective layer of aluminium oxide is formed that keeps water away from the metal so we can say that silver oxide and hydrogen are formed from the reaction of silver metal and steam.

How many moles of O2 are produced when 0.500mol of KO2 reacts in this fashion?
Shtirlitz [24]
I think you means the KO2 reacts with H2O. The equation of this reaction is 4KO2+2H2O->4KOH +3O2. The ratio of mole number of O2 and KO2 is 3:4. So the mole number of O2 produced is 0.500/4*3=0.375 mol.
