Answer: what the hell does that mean
Explanation:
<span>In a popular classroom demonstration, solid sodium is added to liquid water and reacts to produce hydrogen gas and aqueous sodium hydroxide. Balanced chemical equation for this reaction is given below.
Na-sodium , H2o- water, H-hydrogen gas and NaOH- aqueous sodium hydroxide.
Two atoms of Na react with two atoms of water and this reaction will give us H (hydrogen gas) and two atoms of NaOH (aqueous sodium hydroxide).
2Na + 2 H2o = H2 +2NaOH.</span>
Remember: energy is conserved in a chemical reaction (visualize the reaction and question whether heat lies on reactant side (left) or product side (right))
-exothermic- heat is released (heat is on the product side)
>forming an ionic lattice (SALT)- mixture of Na and Cl results in a more stable ionic lattice, causing this reaction to be exothermic
>burning wood
-endothermic- heat is absorbed (heat is on the reactant side)
> cooking an egg
Answer:
Since pH can be affected by chemicals in the water, pH is an important indicator of water that is changing chemically
Explanation:
pH is really a measure of the relative amount of free hydrogen and hydroxyl ions in the water. Water that has more free hydrogen ions is acidic, whereas water that has more free hydroxyl ions is basic
