2KOH(aq) + CoBr₂(aq) → 2KBr(aq) + Co(OH)₂(s)

2K⁺ + 2OH⁻ + Co²⁺ + 2Br⁻ → 2K⁺ + 2Br⁻ + Co(OH)₂

K⁺ and Br⁻ are spectator ions

Answer:

K+ and Br-

Explanation:

A spectator ion is an ion which remains in the same form in both the reactants and product side of a chemical reaction i.e. it does not take part in the reaction.

The reaction between KOH and CoBr2 can be represented as:

2KOH (aq) + CoBr2(aq) → 2KBr(aq) + Co(OH)2(s)

In the above equation the three aqueous solutions, KOH, CoBr2 and KBr will ionize into respective ions unlike Co(OH)2 precipitate. The Total ionic equation can be depicted as:

2K+ + 2OH- + Co2+ + 2Br- → 2K+ + 2Br- + Co(OH)2

The K+ and Br- ions remain unchanged and can be cancelled out giving the net ionic equation:

2OH- + Co2+ → Co(OH)2

Thus, K+ and Br- are spectator ions

Which statement best describes the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Photosynthesis removes carbon from the atmosphere, and cellular respiration releases carbon back into the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The first option clearly expresses the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration releases carbon back into the atmosphere whereas photosynthesis removes the carbon from the atmosphere.

Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants manufacture their food using carbon dioxide and water.

In cellular respiration, the product of the photosynthesis is used by organisms to produce energy.

The addition of NaOH to water would result in which of the following?
EleoNora [17]

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.

The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the partial pressures of
baherus [9]

Answer:

"The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of each gas"

Explanation:

Dalton's law of partial pressures state that, in a mixture of gases, the total pressure is equal to the sum of the partial pressure exerted by each gas of the mixture. The equation is:

Total pressure = Partial pressure Gas 1 + Partial pressure Gas 2 + .... + Partial pressure Gas n

To complete the sentence we can say:

"The total pressure in a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of partial pressures of each gas"
