Complete and balance the following acid-base equations:
Alchen [17]

Answer:

a) HClO_4 (aq) + LiOH \rightarrow LiClO_4 + H_2O

b) H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + 2H_2O (l)

c) Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + 2H_2O

Explanation:

a)

when HClO_4 is added to LiOH, lithium chlorate and water is formed.

HClO_4 (aq) + LiOH \rightarrow LiClO_4 + H_2O

Balancing of above reaction,

It can be seen that all the atoms in both the sides are balanced. so it is a balanced reaction.

(b) When aqueous H_2SO_4 is added to NaOH, Na_2SO_4 and H_2O is formed. It is a neutrilization reaction.

H_2SO_4(aq) + NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + H_2O (l)

Balancing of above reaction,

First balance all the atoms except O and H

S atom is already balanced in either side

No. of Na atom in left hand side = 1

No. of Na atom in right hand side = 2

So multiply NaOH by 2, now the reaction becomes:

H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + H_2O (l)

No. of O atoms in left hand side = 6

No. of O atoms in right hand side = 5

So multiply H2O by 2, now the reaction becomes:

H_2SO_4(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) \rightarrow Na_2SO_4 (aq) + 2H_2O (l)

Now, it can been seen that all the atoms are balanced.

c) When Ba(OH)2 reacts with HF, baroum fluoride and water is formed.

Ba(OH)2 + HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + H_2O

Balancing of above reaction,

Barium atoms are already balanced on either side.

No. of F atoms on left hand side = 1

No. of F atoms on right hand side = 2

So, multiply HF by 2, now reaction becomes

Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + H_2O

In order to balance H and O on either side, multiply H2O by 2.

Ba(OH)2 + 2HF\rightarrow BaF_2 + 2H_2O

Ethanedioic acid, a compound that is present in many vegetables, has a molar mass of 90.04 g/mol and a composition of 26.7% Carb
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Empirical CHO2

Molecular C2H2O4

Explanation:

To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.

Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:

C = 26.7/12 = 2.225

H = 2.2/1 = 2.2

O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375

We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case

C = 2.25/2.2 = 1

H = 2.2/2.2 = 1

O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2

Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2

We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows

[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04

45n = 90.04

n = 90.04/45 = 2

The molecular formula is :

C2H2O4

What happens to isotopes that are unstable?
Lesechka [4]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Isotopes are defined as the chemical species of the same element which differs in the number of neutrons. The isotopes which are unstable are known as radioactive isotope. A radioactive (unstable )isotope can undergo 3 decay process:

1. Alpha Decay: In this decay process, a larger nuclei decays into smaller nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The particle released has a charge of +2 and a mass of 4 units.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\alpha

2. Beta-minus decay: In this decay process, a neutron gets converted into a proton and an electron. the particle released during this process is a beta-particle.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta

3. Beta-plus decay: In this decay process, a protons gets converted into a neutron and electron-neutrino particle. The particle released during this process is a positron particle.

_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-1}^A\textrm{Y}+_{+1}^0\beta

Isotopes which are unstable in nature can undergo these 3 decay processes.
