Is the equation for reaction 1 balanced? Explain your reasoning. If the reaction is not balanced, then state how you would balan
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Reaction is already balanced

Explanation:

The equation in reaction 1 is given as;

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> CO2 + H2O +  Na+   +  CH3COO-

The reaction is already balanced. This is because the umber of atoms of elements in the reactant is equal to that of the products

Carbon

Reactant = 2 + 1 = 3

Product = 2 + 2 = 3

Hydrogen

Reactant = 3 + 1 + 1 = 5

Product = 2 + 3 = 5

Oxygen

Reactant = 2 + 3 = 5

Product = 2 +1 + 2 = 5

Sodium

Reactant = 1

Product = 1

Does the temperature of the solvent (water) affect the rate of dissolving?​
gregori [183]
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.
