Write a balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction between phosphoric acid and rubidium hydroxide.

1 answer:

5 0

Phosphoric acid is a weak acid, while rubidium hydroxide is a strong acid.

H₃PO₄ + RbOH --> Rb₃PO₄ + H₂O

We get Rb₃PO₄ because PO₄ has a charge of 3-, that is PO₄³⁻. Rb has a charge of 1+. You give the subscript of one the charge of the other as this is an ionic compound. So you end up with Rb₃PO₄, a neutral compound.

Now let's balance the equation:
H₃PO₄ + 3RbOH --> Rb₃PO₄ + 3H₂O

Sergio [31]

Answer:

c. chloroacetate ion

Explanation:

The chloroacetic acid, ClCH₂CO₂H, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³. When this weak acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClCH₂CO₂⁻ (From sodium chloroacetate) a buffer is produced. The addition of a strong acid as the HCl produce the following reaction

HCl + ClCH₂CO₂⁻ → ClCH₂CO₂H + Cl⁻.

Where the acid reacts with the chloroacetate ion to produce more chloroacetic acid

That means, the HCl reacts with the chloroacetate ion present in the buffer solution

Right answer is:

<h3>c. chloroacetate ion</h3>
