Answer:

Explanation:

Word equation:

sulfuric acid + ammonium hydroxide → ammonium sulfate + water

Chemical equation:

H₂SO₄ + NH₄OH → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

H₂SO₄ + 2NH₄OH → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

The given reaction is the reaction of acid with base. When acid and base react salt and water are produced. In given reaction an acid sulfuric acid and base ammonium hydroxide react and form ammonium sulfate salt and water. The given reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

Steps to balance the equation:

Steps 1;

H₂SO₄ + NH₄OH → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + H₂O

H = 7 H = 10

S = 1 S = 1

O = 5 O = 5

N = 1 N = 2

Step 2:

H₂SO₄ + 2NH₄OH → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + H₂O

H = 12 H = 10

S = 1 S = 1

O = 6 O = 5

N = 2 N = 2

Step 3:

H₂SO₄ + 2NH₄OH → (NH₄)₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

H = 12 H = 12

S = 1 S = 1

O = 6 O = 6

N = 2 N = 2

Answer 1 and 2 are true for alkaline solutions.

Acids have a pH below 7. (this is the answer)

Both acids and bases are electrolytes as they have free moving ions.

Answer:

Option C. 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol

Explanation:

The first attached picture, is the initial reactant.

Now, what happens in each step?, at first we have an alkyl bromide reacting with Mg/ether. This converts the reactant in a grignard reagent, which is often used in several ketones/ladehydes reactions, and even some acid and esthers.

Now, in the second step, we see this grignard reagent, reacting with CO₂ and H₃O⁺. At first, the grignard reagent will attach to the oxygen of the CO₂ by the MgBr, and the carbonated chain will attach to the carbonile. Then in acid medium, the OMGBr leaves the molecule, and form a carboxylic acid.

Finally, in the last step with LiAlH₄ and water, this compound just reduces the carboxylic acid to a primary alcohol, therefore, the only choice available is option c, 2,2-dimethyl-1-propanol.

See picture 2 below for the drawing.

Hope this helps
