Suppose a friend says that we don't need to worry about the rising temperatures associated with global climate change. Her claim
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Carbonic acid could be formed.

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on her claim, it would be a really useful strategy to prevent global warming, nevertheless, there would be a problem if a increasing amount of carbon dioxide is not buried at the bottom of the ocean yet it flows freely along the sea and probably reacting with the water, causing carbonic acid to be formed  and subsequently cutting back the sea's pH (increasing its acidity).

It would be useful, but a constant monitoring of the sea's pH must be needed because this could cause some species to be affected not only by the temperature but for the acid pH as well.

Best regards.

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following reaction. Phases are optional. Solid calcium chlorate decomposes to form
Tanya [424]

Answer:

  • Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)

Explanation:

1)<u> Word equation (given)</u>

  • <em>calcium chlorate (solid) → solid calcium chloride (solid)  + oxygen (gas)</em>

2) <u>Chemical formulae of the reactant and products</u>:

  • <em><u>Calcium chlorate</u></em><em>: </em>

The most common oxidation states of chlorine are -1, +1, +3, +5, +7.

The suffix ate in chlorate means that chlorine atom is with the third lowest oxidation state (counting only the positive states). So, this is +5.

The oxidation state of calcium is +2.

Hence, the chemical formula of calcium chlorate is Ca(ClO₃)₂

  • <u><em>Calcium chloride</em></u>

The suffix ide in chloride means that chlorine is with oxidation state -1. Again the oxidation state of calcium is +2.

Hence, the chemical formula of calcium chloride is CaCl₂

  • <u><em>Oxygen</em></u>

Oxygen gas is a diatomic molecule, so its chemical formula is O₂.

  • <u><em>Phases</em></u>

The symbols s and g (in parenthesis) indicate the solid and gas phases respectively.

3) <u>Chemical equation</u>:

  • Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + O₂ (g)

That equation is not balanced becasue the number of O atoms in the reactant side and in the product side are different.

4)<u> Balanced chemical equation:</u>

Add a 3 as coefficient in front of O₂(g), in the product side to balance:

  • Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)

Verify that all the atoms are balanced:

Atom    Reactant side      Product side

Ca             1                           1

Cl              2                          2

O              3×2 = 6                2×3 = 6

Conclusion: the equation is balanced and the final answer is:

  • Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)
