<span>C. compounds that have the same atoms arranged in the same order, but with different three-dimensional orientations.</span>
Answer:
Cations are positively charged atoms and hence we need to make the atom positively charged in order to get a cation
We know that an atom is neutral as a whole, so we have equal number of electrons and protons
since we cannot mess with the number of protons in an atom, we have to do it by altering the number of electrons
If we reduce the amount of electrons in an atom, the net charge will be positive and hence a cation will be formed
Answer:
CO₃²⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)
Explanation:
The balanced reaction between Na2CO3 and HCl is given as;
Na₂CO₃ (aq) + 2 HCl (aq) → 2 NaCl (aq) + CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)
The next step is o express the species as ions.
The complete ionic equation for the above reaction would be;
2Na⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) + CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)
The next step is to cancel out the spectator ion ions; that is the ions that appear in both the reactant and product side unchanged.
The spectator ions are; Na⁺ and Cl⁻
The net ionic equation is given as;
CO₃²⁻(aq) + 2H⁺(aq) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)
Explanation:
This is correct!
Ions that exist in both the reactant and product side of the equation are referred to as spectator ions. Overall, they do not partake in the reaction. If they are present on both sides of the equation, you can cancel them out.
An example is;
Na+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) + NO3−(aq) → Na+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + AgCl(s)
The ions; Na+, NO3−(aq) would be cancelled out to give;
Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) → AgCl(s)
is this a cult?im confused
