Write balanced net ionic equations for the reactions that occur in each of the following cases. Identify the spectator ion or io

Dmitrij [34]

Answer :

(a) The net ionic equation will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

The spectator ions are, $NH_4^{+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$

(b) The net ionic equation will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)$

The spectator ions are, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$

(c) The net ionic equation will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)$

The spectator ions are, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$

Explanation :

In the net ionic equations, we are not include the spectator ions in the equations.

Spectator ions : The ions present on reactant and product side which do not participate in a reactions. The same ions present on both the sides.

(a) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Cr_2(SO_4)_3(aq)+3(NH_4)_2CO_3(aq)\rightarrow 3(NH_4)_2SO_4(aq)+Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3SO_4^{2-}(aq)+6NH_4^{+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)+6NH_4^{+}(aq)+3SO_4^{2-}(aq)$

In this equation, $NH_4^{+}\text{ and }SO_4^{2-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$2Cr^{2+}(aq)+3CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3(s)$

(b) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)+K_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+BaSO_4(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)+2K^{+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)+2K^{+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)$

In this equation, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow BaSO_4(s)$

(c) The given balanced ionic equation will be,

$Fe(NO_3)_2(aq)+2KOH(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+Fe(OH)_2(s)$

The ionic equation in separated aqueous solution will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)+2K^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)+2K^{+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)$

In this equation, $K^{+}\text{ and }NO_3^{-}$ are the spectator ions.

By removing the spectator ions from the balanced ionic equation, we get the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation will be,

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2(s)$

For the reaction 2 HCl + Na2CO3 → 2 NaCl + H2O + CO2 8.0 moles of CO2 is collected at STP. What is the volume of CO2? 1. 57.6 L

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Option 5. 179L

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2 HCl + Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl + H₂O + CO₂

The amount of collected CO₂ is 8 moles.

We apply the Ideal Gases Law at STP

STP are 1 atm of pressure and 273K of T°

P . V = n . R . T

1atm . V = 8 mol .0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K

V = (8 mol .0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K) / 1 atm = 179 L

in 1912, chemist fritz haber developed a process that combined nitrogen from the air with hydrogen at high temperatures and pres

Virty [35]

Explain whether this is a chemical or physical change, and why. does it involve elements, compounds, mixtures, or pure substances?

If the process involves a chemical reaction then surely it is a chemical change where new bonds are being formed from the collision of the reactants.

Describe how many atoms are involved before and after. what do you notice about the number of atoms?

From the balanced chemical reaction, we see that we need 1 mol of N2 gas and 3 mol of H2 in order to form 2 mol of NH3.

What would happen to the rate of a reaction with rate law rate = k [NO]^2[H2] if

Ede4ka [16]

The rate of a reaction would be one-fourth.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Rate law-r₁ = k [NO]²[H2]

Required

The rate of a reaction

Solution

The reaction rate (v) shows the change in the concentration of the substance (changes in addition to concentrations for reaction products or changes in concentration reduction for reactants) per unit time.

Can be formulated:

Reaction: aA ---> bB

$\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{v~=~-\frac{\Delta A}{\Delta t}}}}$

or

$\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{v~=~+\frac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}}}}$

The concentration of NO were halved, so the rate :

$\tt r_2=k[\dfrac{1}{2}No]^2[H_2]\\\\r_2=\dfrac{1}{4}k.[No]^2[H_2]\\\\r_2=\dfrac{1}{4}r_1$
