Explanation:
The pH of a weak base falls somewhere between 7 and 10.
There are three things you can do to dissolve the salt in water:
1) Stir the solution - you increase the rate at which water molecules will come in contact with the salt crystals
2) Grind the salt - the surface area of the salt will increase thus the contact area between ionic lattice of the crystal that can interact with water, is bigger
3) Increase the temperature - this will increase even more the rate of the solvation by increasing the kinetic energy of the particles
Answer:
The net ionic equation is
C6H5COOH+ CN-= C6H5COO- + HCN
Explanation:
From the ionic equation
C6H5COOH + Na+ + CN- = C6H5COO- + Na+ + HCN
Only sodium is the spectator ion, so it cancels out, since C6H5COOH and HCN do not ionize completely they are left undissociated
Answer: decrease the temperature of the reaction
Explanation:
CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH ⇌ CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O
The formation of an ester is an exothermic reaction. Therefore, a decrease in the temperature of the reaction will favour the production of ester.
