A + BC  ---> AB + C
So here one reactant (A) is accepting a group which is being given by another compound (BC) however the A is not giving any group / element or ion
So this single displacement
Similarly in the given reaction
the anion OH- is only being replaced
The element Ca accepts OH- and H2O loses the same group to form new element H2
So the correct answer is
Single replacement also known as single displacement.

Calculate the pHpH of a 0.10 MM solution of barium hydroxide, Ba(OH)2Ba(OH)2. Express your answer numerically using two decimal
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

13.301

Explanation:

To calculate the pH of the solution, we must obtain the pOH of the solution as illustrated below:

The dissociation equation is given below

Ba(OH)2 <==> Ba^2+ + 2OH^-

Since Ba(OH)2 dissociate to produce 2moles of OH^-, the concentration of OH^- = 2x0.1 = 0.2M

pOH = - Log[OH^-]

pOH = - Log 0.2

pOH = 0.699

But

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 — pOH

pH = 14 — 0.699

pH = 13.301

What are the oxides of oxygen​
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Oxides are chemical compounds with one or more oxygen atoms combined with another element (e.g. Li2O). Oxides are binary compounds of oxygen with another element, e.g., CO2, SO2, CaO, CO, ZnO, BaO2, H2O, etc. These are termed as oxides because here, oxygen is in combination with only one element.
