Answer:

HOPE IT HELPS...

Explanation:

When added to ice, salt first dissolves in the film of liquid water that is always present on the surface, thereby lowering its freezing point below the ices temperature. Ice in contact with salty water therefore melts, creating more liquid water, which dissolves more salt, thereby causing more ice to melt, and so on

Write the chemical equation for the dissolution reaction of solid iron(iii) hydroxide in water. include the phases of all specie
Allushta [10]
When solid <span>iron (iii) hydroxide is dissolved into water, it ionizes or it dissociates into ions. These ions are the iron (iii) ions and the hydroxide ions. Iron(III) oxide is classified as a base when in aqueous solution since it produces hydroxide ions. It is a weak base so it does not completely dissociate into the solution. The dissociation equation would be:

Fe(OH)3 <-----> Fe3+ + OH-

To write a complete reaction, the reaction should be balanced wherein the number of atoms of each element in the reactant side and the product side should be equal. Also, the phases of the substances should be written. We do as follows:

</span>
Fe(OH)3 (s)  <-----> Fe3+ (aq) + 3OH- (aq)
