Answer:

a  H2CO3 b HCO3- and c H+ and HCO3-

Explanation:

As the pKa value of phenol is more than that of carbonic acid(H2CO3), the carbonic acid will have high Ka value than that of phenol.

  The acid that contain high Ka value act as stong acid.From that point of view H2CO3 is a strong acid than phenol as the Ka value of carbonic acid is greater than that of phenol.

  The conjugate base of H2CO3 is bicarbonate ion(HCO3-)

c The species that predorminates at equilibrium are H+ and HCO3-

Which formula equation represents the burning of sulfur to produce sulfur dioxide?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

option A = S(s) + O₂(g)   →   SO₂ (s)

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

S(s) + O₂(g)   →   SO₂ (s)

when sulfur burned in the presence of oxygen it produce sulfur dioxide. The sulfur dioxide can further react with oxygen to produce sulfur trioxide and then react with water to form sulfuric acid.

Uses of sulfur dioxde:

It is used as a solvent and reagent in laboratory.

Sulfur dioxide is used to produce sulfuric acid.

It is used as a disinfectant

It is also used as a reducing agent.

It is used to preserve the dry food.
