Answer:

AI(NO₃)₃ → Acidic   pH < 7

CH₃NH₃CN  → Neutral  pH = 7

NaCIO  → Basic   pH > 7

CH₃NH₃CI → Acidic   pH < 7

NaNO₃ → Neutral  pH = 7

Explanation:

First of all we dissociate the salts:

  • Al(NO₃)₃  →  Al³⁺  +  3NO₃⁻

Nitrate anion comes from the nitric acid which is strong, so the anion is the conjugate weak base. It does not react to water, but the Al is an special case. Aluminum as a cathion comes from the Al(OH)₃ which is a base but this compound can also react as an acid, it is called amphoterous.

Al³⁺  +  H₂O  ⇄ Al(OH)²⁺  +  H⁺

Aluminium cathion reacts to water in order to produce a complex and to give protons to the medium, so the salt is acid.

  • CH₃NH₃CN  →  CH₃NH₃⁺  +  CN⁻

Both ions come from a weak base and a strong acid, so both ions are the conjugate strong base and acid, respectively. They can make hydrolysis to water so the salt is neutral.

CH₃NH₃⁺   +  H₂O  ⇄  CH₃NH₂  +  H₃O⁺     Ka

CN⁻  +  H₂O  ⇄  HCN +  OH⁻   Kb

  • NaCIO  → Na⁺  + ClO⁻

Sodium cathion, comes from the strong base NaOH so it is does not react to water. It is the conjugate weak acid. Hypochlorite comes from the weak acid, so it can hydrolyse to water.

ClO⁻  +  H₂O  ⇄  HClO  +  OH⁻     Kb

Hypochlorous acid is formed giving OH⁻ to medium, so the salt is basic.

  • CH₃NH₃CI → CH₃NH₃⁺  +  Cl⁻

Chloride comes from the strong acid HCl. It does not react to water.

Methylammonium comes from the weak base, methylamine so it can react to water in order to make hydrolysis. The salt will be acidic.

CH₃NH₃⁺   +  H₂O  ⇄  CH₃NH₂  +  H₃O⁺     Ka

NaNO₃ → Na⁺  +  NO₃⁻

Both ions come from a strong base and acid, so they are the conjugate base and acid, respectively. As they do not make hydrolisis in water, the salt will be neutral.

3) In the Hydrolysis of Disaccharides and Polysaccharides portion of the lab, starch should give one positive iodine test and on
AfilCa [17]

Answer: potassium iodide is the basic test for starch,and the positive test is blue-black coloration, any other test substance which is not starch will give a negative results.

Explanation:

Starch is an example of  polysaccharide  and since the standard test for it is potassium iodide solution, it gives a positive test.

Diasaccharides e.g maltose are reducing sugars.their standard test is BENEDICT test .

Therefore, in the hydrolysis;  starch should give a positve test, while Diasaccharides should give negative rest.

If you start a chemical reaction with 5 atoms of hydrogen, how many hydrogen atoms will you have when it is finished? Group of a
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

5 atoms

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, "matter is neither created nor destroyed in the cause of a chemical reaction".

We finish with what we start with in a chemical reaction. Although new species might form, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression will still be maintained.

All chemical reactions obey this law of conservation.

What are the categories when earth is divided according to its chemical composition? ​
STALIN [3.7K]
The Earth is divided into three chemical layers: the Core [Inner Core (D) and Outer Core (C)], the Mantle (B) and the Crust (A). The Core is predominantly composed of iron and nickel. Even after 4.5 billion years of cooling, the Earth's core remains very hot.
