Answer:

  • <em><u>Option A. </u></em><u><em>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</em></u>

Explanation:

There are five basic general types of chemical reactions:

  • Decomposition reactions
  • Synthesis or combination reaction
  • Single replacement reactions
  • Double replacement reactions
  • Combustion reactions

The given reactions are:

  • <u>2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂</u>

Which is, indeed, a decomposition reaction because the reactant, KClO₃, is a single substance that undergoes a reaction in which it yields two new substances, known as products: KCl and O₂.

  • <u>4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O</u> is a synthesis or combination reaction because two reactants, Na and O₂, combine for the formation of one single new product, Na₂O.

  • <u>ZnS + 3 O₂ →  2ZnO + 2SO₂ </u>is a single replacement reaction because oxygen is replacing Zn and S in ZnS to form ZnO and plus SO₂.

  • <u>2NaBr + CaF₂ → 2NaF + CaBr₂ </u>is a double replacement reaction because two  ions (Br⁻ from NaBr and F⁻ from CaF₂) are exchanging places with other two ions (Na⁺ from NaBr and Ca²⁺ from CaF₂) two form two new ionic compounds (NaF and CaBr₂).

A neutralization reaction was performed using NaOH (volume - 250 ml., concentration - 0.500 M) and nitric acid (volume - 25.0 ml
IgorLugansk [536]

0.01375 moles of nitric acid (HNO₃) which is the limiting reactant

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

NaOH + HNO₃ → NaNO₃ + H₂O

Now to determine the number of moles of each reactant we use the following formula:

molar concentration = number of moles / volume (L)

number of moles = molar concentration × volume (L)

number of moles of NaOH = 0.5 × 0.250 = 0.125 moles

number of moles of HNO₃ = 0.55 × 0.025 = 0.01375 moles

From the chemical reaction we see that 1 mole of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of HNO₃, so 0.125 moles of NaOH will react with 0.125 moles of HNO₃ but we only have 0.01375 moles of HNO₃ available, so the limiting reactant is HNO₃.

How do you know the ph level of 10^-8
sergiy2304 [10]

pH=6.98

Explanation:

This is a very interesting question because it tests your understanding of what it means to have a dynamic equilibrium going on in solution.

As you know, pure water undergoes self-ionization to form hydronium ions, H3O+, and hydroxide anions, OH−.

2H2O(l]⇌H3O+(aq]+OH−(aq]→ very important!

At room temperature, the value of water's ionization constant, KW, is equal to 10−14. This means that you have

KW=[H3O+]⋅[OH−]=10−14

Since the concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions are equal for pure water, you will have

[H3O+]=√10−14=10−7M

The pH of pure water will thus be

pH=−log([H3O+])

pH=−log(10−7)=7

Now, let's assume that you're working with a 1.0-L solution of pure water and you add some 10
