Gas x would be carbon dioxide.
note/ acid + carbonate —> salt + water + carbon dioxide
the white precipitate would be calcium carbonate. CaCo₃
note/ this is a common eqn u need to remember.
X - CO₂ (carbón dioxide)
Y - CaCo₃ (calcium carbonate)
sodium carbonate is a basic salt
Answer:
Option c. Neutral
Explanation:
Only neutral solution gives a green colouration to a pH paper
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The octet rule forms the basis for chemical reactions. The octet rule states that; an atom is only stable when it has eight electrons around its outermost shell.
This implies that the driving force behind chemical reaction is the attainment of an octet structure(eight electrons in the outermost shell of each of the bonding atoms).
An atom that has only six electrons in its outermost shell is not yet stable according to the demand of the octet rule. Hence, the statement "chemical reactions happen and compounds form because they're trying to get 6 electrons in their outer orbitals" is false.
