Write balanced molecular equation for the reaction between nitric acid and calcium hydroxide. Express your answer as a chemical
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of nitric acid and calcium hydroxide is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of nitric acid and calcium hydroxide follows:
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
2 moles of nitric acid reacts with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide to produce 1 mole of calcium nitrate and 2 moles of water molecule.
Hence, the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of nitric acid and calcium hydroxide is written below.

See explanation below
Explanation:
You are missing the structure, therefore, I will do an example with one that I found on another place to try to explain.
This acid mechanism always involves carbocations, and positive charges, never negative because we are in acidic mediums.
In the first step, the lone pairs of the oxigen from the epoxide, substract one hydrogen of the reactant.
Second step, the lone pairs of the oxygen from the reactant, do a nucleophylic attack to the carbon of the epoxide. In this case, it will do it to the most substitued carbon.
Then, in the third step by acid base equilibrium, the hydrogen from the reactant that attacked, is substracted from the molecule by a molecule of water (We are in acid medium, therefore, there is traces of water) and the final structure is formed.
