Hard water stains in sinks and showers can be caused by a buildup of solid calcium carbonate. These stains can be removed by bat

hroom cleaners containing acids such as aqueous hydrochloric acid, which reacts with the calcium carbonate to form carbon dioxide gas, aqueous calcium chloride and liquid water. a) Write a balanced equation for this reaction

Answer:

CaCO3 + 2HCl ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2

Explanation:

The reaction between solid calcium carbonate and a mineral acid such as aqueous HCl is a neutralization reaction and occurs with the evolution of CO2 gas.

The balanced equation is given below

CaCO3 + 2HCl ---> CaCl2 + H20 + CO2

The product CaCl2 is water soluble which accounts for why the stain is removed, while CO2 gas escapes away from the reaction surface.

Answer:

CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) -------> CaCl2(aq) + 2CO2(g) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

CaCO3(s) + 2HCl(aq) -------> CaCl2(aq) + 2CO2(g) + H2O(l)

When an acid reacts with a metal carbonate a salt, carbon dioxide and water are formed. Hard water usually contain Ca^2+ in the form of Ca(HCO3)2. Minor heating causes CaCO3(calcium carbonate) to deposit on surfaces through which the hard water passes.

Calcium carbonate reacts with acids to produce a calcium salt, water and carbon dioxide: Calcium carbonate + Hydrochloric acid → Calcium chloride + Water + Carbon dioxide. The carbonate radical breaks up into carbon dioxide and oxygen; the oxygen binds with the acid's hydrogen ions to make water; and a solution of calcium chloride remains.

Analysis/Conclusions:
Paha777 [63]
The correct answers are as follows:
1. MgSO4 + 2NH4OH = [NH4]2SO4 + Mg[OH]2.
This chemical equation implies that, one molecule of magnesium sulphate react with two molecules of ammonium hydroxide to give rise to one molecule of ammonium sulphate and  one molecule of magnesium hydroxide. 
2. The reaction between magnesium sulphate and ammonia is a DOUBLE REPLACEMENT REACTION.
A double replacement reaction is a type of reaction in which the two chemical substances which take part in the reaction switch their ions in such a way that two new products are formed. In the reaction of magnesium sulphate and ammonia, the magnesium sulphate gives its SO4 ion to ammonia and take the OH ion of the ammonia instead. 
3. The epsom salt and the ammonia reacted. This is made obvious by the chemical reaction which was generated by their combination. On the edge of the penny used, one can see that there is a colour change, this shows that a chemical reaction occur.

Answer:

1. Chemical reactions

2.Substances

3. Properties

4. Precipitate

5. Light

6. Temperature

7. Color

8. Gas

Explanation:

During chemical reactions, new substances that possess new properties are formed. During the process of chemical reactions, evidences are found. Some of the evidences are formation of precipitate or light gel, production of gases and changes in color and temperature.

Chemical reactions start with the substances or compounds which are known as reactants. The reactants react to form new substances known as the products which possess new properties.

Calculate the ratio of effusion rates of cl2 to f2 .
WINSTONCH [101]
<span>Answer: Graham's law of gaseous effusion states that the rate of effusion goes by the inverse root of the gas' molar mass. râšM = constant Therefore for two gases the ratio rates is given by: r1 / r2 = âš(M2 / M1) For Cl2 and F2: r(Cl2) / r(F2) = âš{(37.9968)/(70.906)} = 0.732 (to 3.s.f.)</span>
