Answer:

The net ionic equation is as follows:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

Explanation:

The reaction between Hydrocyanic acid, HCN, and sodium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction between a weak acid and a strong base.

Hydrocyanic acid being a weak acid ionizes only slightly, while sodium hydroxide being a strong base ionizes completely. The equation for the reaction is given below:

A. HCN(aq) + NaOH-(aq) ----> NaCN(aq) + H2O(l)

Since Hydrocyanic acid is written in the aqueous form as it ionizes only slightly and the ionic equation is given below:

HCN(aq) + Na+(aq)+OH-(aq) ----> Na+(aq)+CN-(aq) + H2O(l)

Na+ being a spectator ion is removed from the net ionic equation given below:

HCN(aq) + OH-(aq) ----> H20(l) + CN-(aq)

In 1901, Thomas Edison invented the nickel-iron battery. The following reaction takes place in the battery. Fe(s) + 2 NiO(OH)(s)
lord [1]

Ans: Moles of Fe(OH)2 produced is 5.35 moles.


Given reaction:

Fe(s) + 2NiO(OH) (s) + 2H2O(l) → Fe(OH)2(s) + 2Ni(OH)2(aq)

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

1 mole of Fe reacts with 2 moles of NiO(OH) to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)2

It is given that there are:

5.35 moles of Fe

7.65 moles of NiO(OH)

Here the limiting reagent is Fe

Therefore, number of moles of Fe(OH)2 produced is 5.35 moles.

write a net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of perchloric acid and potassium hydroxide are co
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇒ H₂O(l)

Explanation:

Let's consider the molecular equation that occurs when aqueous solutions of perchloric acid and potassium hydroxide are combined. This is a neutralization reaction.

HClO₄(aq) + KOH(aq) ⇒ KClO₄(aq) + H₂O(l)

The complete ionic equation includes all the ions and molecular species.

H⁺(aq) + ClO₄⁻(aq) + K⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇒ K⁺(aq) + ClO₄⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

The net ionic equation includes only the ions that participate in the reaction and the molecular species.

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇒ H₂O(l)

Can someone please help me correct A and B please!!!!!!!!
ale4655 [162]
A) a good hypothesis to be put in question for the experiment would be “Fluorescent light can fade color photographs quicker than direct sunlight can.”

B) the controlled variables, or things that will need to be kept constant throughout the experiment, would be the amount of light on each picture, the amount of ink on each picture, the type of ink on each picture, the size of each picture, and the time of day of the light for each picture.

When involved in a chemical reaction with a metal, what charge will elements in the oxygen family most likely form?
irina [24]
They have 6 electron in their outer orbital. That means they want 2 electrons to be stable. Since metals have the tendency to give electron oxygen receives 2 electrons. The answer is -2

What is the ratio of acetate ion to acetic acid (Ka = 1.76×10–5) in a solution containing these compounds at pH 4.38 ? Write you
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

0.43.

Explanation:

In order to solve this question we will need the an equation called Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation. The Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation can be represented by the reaction below;

pH= pKa + log ( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ).

Where HA is the acetic acid and A^- is the Acetate ion

We are given the pH value to be = 4.38 and the ka to be = 1.76×10^–5. So, we will use the value for the ka to find the pKa through the formula below.

pKa = - log ka.

Therefore, pKa = - log( 1.76×10^–5).

pKa= 4.75 + log

So,

4.38 = 4.75 + log ([ A^-] / [HA]).

4.38 - 4.75 = log ( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ).

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ) = 10^- 0.37.

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ) = 0.42657951880159265.

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] )= 0.43.
