Answer:
H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻
CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
b. CaCl₂
Explanation:
When H₃PO₄ is dissolved in water, there are produced the H⁺ and PO₄³⁻ ions. The equation is:
H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻
In the same way, CaSO₄ is dissolved in:
CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
b. Now, in a reaction of an acid (HCl) and a base (Ca(OH)₂), water, H₂O and a salt are produced:
2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + Salt
The ions that are not present in the reaction are Cl⁻ and Ca²⁺, the salt is CaCl₂ and the balanced reaction is:
2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + CaCl₂
The mass of an atom and the equivalent of to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom
The reaction is actually endothermic because delta H is positive, indicating that it absorbing heat.
If an atom gains an electron and gets a negative charge because of it, it is a negatively charge ion AKA an anion.
