Answer:
CaCO3(aq) → Ca2+(aq ) + CO3 2-(aq)
Explanation:
- Dissolution reactions are reactions that occur when a solute either in gaseous, liquid, or solid form dissolves in a solvent such as water to form a solution.
- In this case we are given Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which undergoes dissolution according to the equation;
- CaCO3(aq) → Ca2+(aq ) + CO3 2-(aq)
- Then<em><u> the bicarbonate ion combines with two protons from water to form a weak acid H2CO3. The weak acid is then broken down to form CO2 and H2O since its unstable.</u></em>
D IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION
Answer:
Two non bonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs
Explanation:
An image of the compound as obtained from chemlibretext is attached to this answer.
The ion ICl4- ion, is an AX4E2 ion. This implies that there are four bond pairs and two lone pairs of electrons. As expected, the shape of the ion is square planar since the lone pairs are found above and below the plane of the square. This is clear from the image attached.
