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

I would say Na. Oxygen has 2 valence electrons and when reacting with other molecules, the ones with the fullest or emptiest shells will react the least. Both H2 and Na are in the Alkali Metals in the first row, but since H2 has 2 molecules, it would use more oxygen than Ana

How many moles of helium gas are contained in a 4.0 L flask at STP
Ratling [72]
First, you convert liters to moles. 
Usually you have to go to grams but this is STP.

Get moles directly by dividing the 4 by STP (22.4)
\frac{4}{22.4} =0.17857142857
About 1.8*10^{-1} or 0.18 moles whichever your teacher prefers
