For each of the following reactions, identify the missing reactant(s) or products(s) and then balance the resulting equation. No

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

A. The reactants are= Li and O2

The balanced equation is:

4Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

B. The products are: MgCl2 and O2

The balanced equation is:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + 3O2

C. The products are: Ca(NO3)2 and H2O

The balanced equation is:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 +

2H2O

D. The products are: CO2 and H2O

The balanced equation is:

C5H12 + 8O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Explanation:

A. ____ —> Li2O

The reactants are Li and O2. Thus the equation is given below:

Li + O2 —> Li2O

Thus the equation is balanced as follow:

There are 2 atoms of O on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Li2O as shown below:

Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

Now, we have 4 atoms of Li on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of Li as shown below:

4Li + O2 —> 2Li2O

Now the equation is balanced

B. Mg(ClO3)2 —> __

The products are MgCl2 and O2

The equation is given below:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + O2

The equation can be balance as follow:

There are 6 atoms of O on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

Mg(ClO3)2 —> MgCl2 + 3O2

Now the equation is balanced

C. HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —>___

The products are: Ca(NO3)2 and H2O

The equation is given below:

HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

The equation is balanced as follow:

There are 2 atoms of NO3 on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HNO3 as shown below:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

There are a total of 4 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2O as shown below:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 —> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Now the equation is balanced

D. C5H12 + O2 —>__

The products are: CO2 and H2O

The equation is given below:

C5H12 + O2 —> CO2 + H2O

The equation can be balance as follow:

There are 5 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of CO2 as shown below:

C5H12 + O2 —> 5CO2 + H2O

There are 12 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of H2O as shown below:

C5H12 + O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now, there are a total of 16 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 8 in front of O2 as shown below:

C5H12 + 8O2 —> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now we can see that the equation is balanced.

Consider this reaction: NH4 HPO42− → NH3 H2PO4− Which is the Bronsted-Lowry acid ? NH4 HPO42- HPO42– H2PO4–.

kvv77 [185]

Bronsted - Lowry acid in the given reaction is NH₄, as it gives H⁺ ion.

<h3>What is Bronsted - Lowry acid?</h3>

According to the theory of Bronsted - Lowry, acids are those substances which gives H⁺ ion or proton in the aqueous medium.

Given chemical reaction is :

NH₄ + HPO₄²⁻ → NH₃ + H₂PO₄⁻

In the above reaction NH₄ is the Bronsted - Lowry acid as it gives H⁺ ion in the reaction and changes to NH₃ which is the conjugate base of NH₄. Whereas HPO₄²⁻ is the Bronsted - Lowry base as it accepts the H⁺ ion to form H₂PO₄⁻ which is the conjugate acid of it.

Hence, option (1) is correct, i.e. NH₄ is the Bronsted - Lowry acid.

Which statement describes the Arrhenius interpretation of acids and bases?

Vilka [71]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Note => 1st one should understand that for an 'acid' to be an acid and a 'base' to be a base, two requirements must be met, (1) the compound must have an ionizable Hydrogen for acids or Hydroxide for bases, and (2) must be in water and ionize delivering H⁺ ions from acids and OH⁻ ions from bases. The Arrhenius acids are characterized by having an ionizable hydrogen which when added into water increases the hydronium ion concentration (H₃O⁺). Arrhenius bases are characterized by having an ionizable hydroxide function (OH-).

Typically, the acids and bases are characterized as either strong or weak electrolytes. the Strong electrolytes ionize 100% in water and Weak electrolytes less than 100%.

The strong acids include HCl, HBr, HI, HNO₃, HClO₄ and H₂SO₄ (1st ionization step). Any acid (H-Anion) not a member of the strong 6 is a weak acid.

The strong Arrhenius Bases are Group IA and Group IIA Hydroxides except for Beryllium Hydroxide. Weak Arrhenius Bases are ammonia or ammonia derivatives (amines) in water.

=> NH₃ + H₂O => NH₄OH ⇄ NH⁺ + OH⁻.

The ammonia derivatives follow the same reactive nature in water.

=> RNH₂ + H₂O => RNH₃OH ⇄ RNH₃⁺ + OH⁻ where R- is a structural substrate; e.g., Methyl Amine => H₃C - NH₂ .
