Why is NaHCO3 a base?

Chemistry
1 answer:
worty [1.4K]3 years ago
7 0

NaHCO3 is a product of a strong base and a weak acid reaction. Thus it has weak basic properties.

HCO3- ion is actually amphoteric, which means it can act as a base or an acid. But it is weaker than a strong acid or a strong base.

<span>HCO3- is amphoteric meaning it acts both as a B.L. Acid and a B.L. Base.. which is why it's used to neutralize both acid and base spills in the lab.</span>

What is an example of kinetic energy at work,1 a ball lodge in the tree, 1 a frisbee flaying in the air, 3 a car in the garage
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

a frisbee flaying in the air

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where;

  • K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
  • M represents mass measured in kilograms.
  • V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Hence, an example of kinetic energy at work is a frisbee flaying in the air because it would possess energy due to its motion in the air.

Write the net ionic equ.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

a) AgNO3 + KI → AgI + KNO3

b) Ba(OH)2 + 2HNO3 → Ba(NO3)2 + 2H2O

c) 2Na3PO4  + 3Ni(NO3)2  → Ni3(PO4)2 + 6NaNO3

d) 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + 6H2O

Explanation:

a) AgNO3 + KI → Ag+ + NO3- + K+ + I-

Ag+ + NO3- + K+ + I-  → AgI + KNO3

AgNO3 + KI → AgI + KNO3

b) Ba(OH)2 + 2HNO3 → Ba^2+ + 2OH- + 2H+ + 2NO3-

Ba^2+ + 2OH- + 2H+ + 2NO3- → Ba(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Ba(OH)2 + 2HNO3 → Ba(NO3)2 + 2H2O

c) 2Na3PO4  + 3Ni(NO3)2 → 6Na+ + 2PO4^3- + 3Ni^2+ + 6NO3-

6Na+ + 2PO4^3- + 3Ni^2+ + 6NO3- →  Ni3(PO4)2 + 6NaNO3

2Na3PO4  + 3Ni(NO3)2  → Ni3(PO4)2 + 6NaNO3

d) 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 → 2Al^3+ + 6OH- + 6H+ + 3SO4^2-

2Al^3+ + 3OH- + 3H+ + 3SO4^2- → Al2(SO4)3 + 6H2O

2Al(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + 6H2O

How much heat is required to vaporize 25g of water at 100*c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.

Explanation:

To convert a water to steam at 100 degree celsius to vapor, we have to give latent heat of vaporization to water

Which equals ,

Q = mL,

Where, m is the mass of water present

           L = specific latent heat of vaporization

Here , m= 25 gram

L equals to 533 calories (or 2230 Joules)

So, Q = 25×533 = 13,325 Calories

Or , Q = 55,750 Joules = 55.75 KJ

so, Heat required = 13,325 calories or 55.75 KJ.

Consider the electrolysis of molten barium chloride (bacl2). write the half-reactions. include the states of each species.
aksik [14]
Molten barium chloride is separeted into two species :
BaCl₂(l) → Ba(l) + Cl₂(g),
but first ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat:
BaCl₂(l) → Ba²⁺(l) + 2Cl⁻(l).

Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Ba²⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → Ba(l).

Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2Cl⁻(l) → Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻.

<span>The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.</span>
