In the reaction between lead(II) nitrate and sodium chloride, what, if any, are the spectator ions

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Spectator ions are ions in a solution/reaction that do not take part in a chemical reaction (hence are called "spectator" ions). <u>They can be identified when they are found both in the reactant and product sides</u>.

The reaction between lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO₃)₂ and sodium chloride, NaCl is illustrated below

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2NaCl ⇒ PbCl₂ + 2NaNO₃

According to solubility rules, all the compounds above (with the exception of PbCl₂) are all soluble and would dissociate when involved in a reaction.

Hence, the ionic equation based on the description above will be

Pb²⁺ + 2NO₃⁻ + 2Na⁺ + 2Cl⁻  ⇒  PbCl₂ + 2Na⁺ + 2NO₃⁻

From the above ionic equation, <u>it can be noted that both 2NO₃⁻ and 2Na⁺ are found on both the reactant and product side and are hence the spectator ions.</u>

Since gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases. -google

Which do you think will cool down faster in? The teaspoon of water or the cup of water? Why?
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

I think the teaspoon will cool down faster.

Explanation:

The teaspoon of water will cool down faster because it is a smaller amount of water so the entire [drop] will absorb heat energy faster.
