We have a solution of NaOH and H₂CO₃
First, NaOH will dissociate into Na⁺ and OH⁻ ions
The Na⁺ ion will substitute one of the Hydrogen atoms on H₂CO₃ to form NaHCO₃
The H⁺ released from the substitution will bond with the OH⁻ ion to form a water molecule
If there were to be another NaOH molecule, a similar substitution will take place, substituting the second hydrogen from H₂CO₃ as well to form Na₂CO₃
The correct answer to this question is letter "A. homogeneous mixture." The following characteristics describe the type of mixture, which is a homogeneous mixture. The substance is mixed uniformly throughout and each part of <span>the substance contains the same ratio of materials with the same properties</span>
Explanation:
solution 1) homogeneous
2) do not scatter light
3) cannot be separated by filtration
Colloids 1) heterogeneous
2) scatter light
3) cannot be separated by filtration
suspension 1) heterogeneous
2) may either scatter light or be opaque
3) can be separated by filtration
Format Method - Writing the symbol of the cation and then the anion. Add whatever subscripts in order to balance the charges.
Crisscross Method - The numerical value of the charge of each ion is crossed over and becomes the subscripts for the other ion.
Explanation:
- Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.
So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.
Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.
- When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.
A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which
is positive.
- Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.
Hence, for an exothermic process value of
is negative.
Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.
- A combustion reaction is exothermic.
- When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings,
is negative.
- For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.
