The addition of NaOH to water would result in which of the following?

Chemistry
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A decrease in [H3O+] and an increase in pH (option a)

Explanation:

Equilibrium of water is shown in this equation

2H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

When you add NaOH, you are modifying [OH⁻]

NaOH  →   Na⁺  +  OH⁻

In equilibrium of water, the [OH⁻] increases

2H₂O   ⇄   ↓  H₃O⁺   +   OH⁻  ↑

As the [OH⁻] increases, by Le Chatellier, the equilibrium tends to decrease [H₃O⁺].

If the [OH⁻] is higher, pH  is also high so the solution of water and sodium hydroxide would be totally basic.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.

Explanation:

The burning of magnesium in air produces magnesium oxide as shown by the equation;

2Mg(s) + O2(g) -----> 2MgO(s)

The magnesium oxide solid is recovered as a white ash. This is a typical example of an oxidation reaction which is also a combustion reaction.

The reason has nothing at all to do with the assertion hence the answer given.

Magnesium oxide is basic just like the oxides of other metals and dissolves in water to yield an alkali.
