Answer: HA + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + H- (option #4)

Explanation: Since the acid is weak you have to use a ⇌ (equilibrium) sign. Equilibrium is denoted in a chemical equation by the ⇌ symbol. Also, when any acid dissolves into water, it produces hydronium (H3O+ or H+). Therefore, the fourth chemical reaction is your answer.

Answer:

The International Date Line, established in 1884, passes through the mid-Pacific Ocean and roughly follows a 180 degrees longitude north-south line on the Earth. It is located halfway round the world from the prime meridian—the zero degrees longitude established in Greenwich, England, in 1852.

Hello there!

In this case, since the reaction between lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide is:

$Pb(NO_3)_2+2KBr\rightarrow PbBr_2+2KNO_3$

Exhibits a 1:2 mole ratio of the former to the later, we can calculate the moles of lead (II) bromide product to figure out the limiting reactant:

$0.125L*0.150\frac{molPb(NO_3)_2}{L} *\frac{1molPbBr_2}{1molPb(NO_3)_2} =0.01875molPbBr_2\\\\0.145L*0.200\frac{molKBr}{L} *\frac{1molPbBr_2}{2molKBr} =0.0145molPbBr_2$

Thus, the limiting reactant is the KBr as it yields the fewest moles of PbBr2 product. Afterwards, we calculate the mass of product by using its molar mass:

$0.0145molPbBr_2*\frac{367.01gPbBr_2}{1molPbBr_2} =5.32gPbBr_2$
