Answer:

A. K₂C₂O₄ Potassium oxalate

B. CuC₂O₄ Copper oxalate

C. Bi₂(C₂O₄)₃ Bismuth (III) oxalate

D. Pb(C₂O₄)₂ Lead (IV) oxalate

E. (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ Ammonium oxalate

F. HC₂O₄⁻ Acid oxalate

Explanation:

C₂O₄⁻² → oxalate anion

This is the conjugate base from the H₂C₂O₄ which is the oxalic acid. A weak dyprotic acid that can release 2 protons.

A. 2K⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² → K₂C₂O₄ Potassium oxalate

It can be formed by the neutralization of the acid with the base

H₂C₂O₄ + 2KOH → K₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O

B. Cu²⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ CuC₂O₄ ↓

This is a precipitate.

C. 2Bi³⁺ + 3C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ Bi₂(C₂O₄)₃ ↓

This is a precipitate.

D. Pb⁴⁺ + 2C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ Pb(C₂O₄)₂ ↓

This is a precipitate.

E. 2NH₄⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ ↓

This is a precipitate.

F. This is the conjugate strong base, for the weak acid

H⁺ + C₂O₄⁻² ⇄ HC₂O₄⁻

HC₂O₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ C₂O₄⁻² + H₃O⁺ Ka

HC₂O₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ H₂C₂O₄ + OH⁻ Kb

HC₂O₄⁻ is an amphoteric compound

Boron sulfide, B2S3(s), reacts violently with water to form dissolved boric acid (H3BO3) and hydrogen sulfide gas

Gwar [14]

The equation structure for the above mentioned reaction can be written as

$B_{2} S_{3}+6 H_{2} O \rightarrow 2 H_{3} B O_{3}+3 H_{2} S \uparrow$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Considering the above reaction, When Boron sulfide, reacts with water more violently to form boric acid and hydrogen sulfide gas.

$B_{2} S_{3}+H_{2} O \rightarrow H_{3} B O_{3}+H_{2} S \uparrow$

In order to balance the equation, we can do as follows.There are 2 B - atoms on both sides of the equation, but only 2 H - atoms, and one O - atom on LHS, so we have to balance it by putting 6 in front of water and 2 in front of Boric acid and 3 in front of hydrogen sulphide gas, so that we have 2 B - atoms, 3 - S atoms, 12 H - atoms on both sides of the equation, and it is balanced. Balanced equation is given as,

$B_{2} S_{3}+6 H_{2} O \rightarrow 2 H_{3} B O_{3}+3 H_{2} S \uparrow$

Thus a Balanced equation of the above mentioned reaction is written.
