pychu [463]

Answer:

The physical properties of a solution are different from those of the pure solvent. ... Colligative properties are those physical properties of solutions of nonvolatile solutes that depend only on the number of particles present in a given amount of solution, not on the nature of those particles.

Complete the following equations : H3PO4 = 3H+ --------------- CaSO4 = Ca 2+ ---------------- (2) b) Write the formulae of the s
jeka94

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
