What is the net ionic equation of the reaction of mgcl2 with naoh?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The net ionic equation will be MgCl₂ + 2  NaOH → Mg(OH)₂ + 2 NaCl

Explanation:

Ionization of MgCl₂ is as follows

MgCl₂  → Mg²⁺ + 2 Cl⁻

Ionization of NaOH is as follows

NaOH → Na⁺ + OH⁻

It  is a one type of substitution reaction where OH⁻ combined with  Mg²⁺ to give magnesium hydroxide .

 On the other hand Cl⁻ combined with Na⁺ to give sodium chloride as product.

Using proper stoichiometry to balanced the number of atoms in both side .

Define independent variable
GenaCL600 [577]
A variable that stands alone and isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure. For example, if you’re trying to see if drinking milk affects a persons height, then the independent variable is the milk, and the dependent variable is the persons height change

What change must made to the coefficients to balance this equation?
tresset_1 [31]

<u>Switch the 3 and the 4</u>, this change must made to the coefficients to balance this equation.

Now, the correct balance equation is C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4H₂O

This method of balancing chemical equations involves assigning algebraic variables as stoichiometric coefficients to each species in the unbalanced chemical equation.

Suppose a 1.0 L solution contains 0.020 M in Cu(NO3)2, then 0.40 moles of NH3 are added. Assuming no change in volume, what is t
Rasek [7]

Answer:

4.6*10^{-14} M

Explanation:

Concentration of Cu^{2+} = [Cu(NO_3)_2] = 0.020 M

Constructing an ICE table;we have:

                                 Cu^{2+}+4NH_3_{aq} \rightleftharpoons [Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}_{(aq)}

Initial (M)             0.020          0.40                        0

Change (M)         -  x                - 4 x                       x

Equilibrium (M)  0.020 -x        0.40 - 4 x              x

Given that: K_f =1.7*10^{13}

K_f } = \frac{[Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}}{[Cu^{2+}][NH_3]^4}

1.7*10^{13} = \frac{x}{(0.020-x)(0.40-4x)^4}

Since x is so small; 0.40 -4x = 0.40

Then:

1.7*10^{13} = \frac{x}{(0.020-x)(0.0256)}

1.7*10^{13} = \frac{x}{(5.12*10^{-4}-0.0256x)}

1.7*10^{13}(5.12*10^{-4} - 0.0256x) = x

8.704*10^9-4.352*10^{11}x =x

8.704*10^9 = 4.352*10^{11}x

x = \frac{8.704*10^9}{4.352*10^{11}}

x = 0.0199999999999540

Cu^{2+}= 0.020 - 0.019999999999954

Cu^{2+} = 4.6*10^{-14} M
