The given question is incomplete. The complete question is :

What is the coefficient of H_2O when the following equation is properly balanced with the smallest set of whole numbers? PCl_3(l)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3PO_3(aq)+HCl(aq)

Answer: The coefficient of H_2O is 3

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

PCl_3(l)+3H_2O(l)\rightarrow H_3PO_3(aq)+3HCl(aq)

The coefficient of H_2O is 3

Ket [755]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equations are given below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • <u>For 1:</u>

The chemical equation for the reaction of lead nitrate and sodium hydroxide follows:

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq.)+2NaOH(aq.)\rightarrow Pb(OH)_2(s)+2NaNO_3(aq.)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aqueous solution of lead nitrate reacts with 2 moles of aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide to produce 1 mole of solid lead hydroxide and 2 moles of aqueous solution of sodium nitrate.

  • <u>For 2:</u>

The chemical equation for the reaction of lead hydroxide and hydroxide ions follows:

Pb(OH)_2(s)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow [Pb(OH)_4]^{2-}(aq.)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of lead hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of aqueous solution of hydroxide ions to produce 1 mole of aqueous solution of tetra hydroxy lead (II) complex

Hence, the chemical equations are given above.

Which statement about bases is incorrect? Select one: a. All bases contain hydroxide ions. b. All bases taste bitter. c. All bas
NemiM [27]

Answer

a

Explanation:

While the Arrhenius definition of a base agrees with this statement, the Bronsted-Lowry and Lewis definitions don't. Under Bronsted-Lowry, a base is anything that can accept a proton (ex// NH3). Under lewis, it is anything that can donate an electron (ex// Cl-).

Bases are usually bitter and turn red litmus paper blue, and are slippery.

When a double replacement reaction produced one compound that is soluble and one compounds that is insoluble,a. only the solutio
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

c. the soluble compound exists as dissolved ions in a solution while insoluble compound forms as a precipitated.

Explanation:

Let's consider an example of a double displacement reaction that produces a soluble compound and an insoluble one.

BaCl₂(aq) + Na₂SO₄(aq) ⇒ NaCl(aq) + BaSO₄(s)↓

NaCl is a soluble compound so it is dissolved in the solution. It is also an electrolyte so it ionizes in water according to the following equation:

NaCl(aq) ⇒ Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

BaSO₄ is insoluble so it remains as a precipitate.

The following reaction can be used to make H₂ for the synthesis of ammonia from the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane:
olchik [2.2K]

The artificial fixation of nitrogen (N2) has enormous energy, environmental, and societal impact, the most important of which is the synthesis of ammonia (NH3) for fertilizers that help support nearly half of the world's population.

<h3>Artificial fixation of nitrogen</h3>

We can generate ammonia gas in the research centre by slowly heating ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) and slaked lime [Ca(OH)2].

The following reaction can be used to make H₂ for the synthesis of ammonia from the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide and methane: CH₄(g) + CO₂(g) ⇄ 2CO)g) + 2H₂(g

When added to a solution of copper sulfate, ammonia turns the solution deep blue.

NH3 + CuSO4 + nH2O→ [Cu(NH3)4(H2O)n]SO4
