Answer:

NaOH + HCl —> NaCl + H₂O

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following equation:

4NaOH + 4HCl —> NaCl + H₂O

The equation can be balance as follow:

4NaOH + 4HCl —> NaCl + H₂O

There are 4 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of NaCl as shown below:

4NaOH + 4HCl —> 4NaCl + H₂O

There are a total of 8 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of H₂O as shown below:

4NaOH + 4HCl —> 4NaCl + 4H₂O

Next, divide through by 4 to express the equation with the lowest coefficients.

NaOH + HCl —> NaCl + H₂O

Now the equation is balanced.

NOTE: Smallest coefficients are always used to represent a balanced equation.

A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is _________, while a forward reaction in which adding heat

ELEN [110]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. A forward reaction in which adding heat decreases product formation is exothermic, while a forward reaction in which adding heat increases product formation is endothermic. Exothermic would mean that heat is being released by the process while the opposite is called endothermic in which it absorbs heat.

A synthesis reaction takes place when carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen gas (H2) react to form methanol (CH3OH). How many grams

jek_recluse [69]

The mass of methanol produced is 8.0 g.

We have the masses of two reactants, so this is a limiting reactant problem.

We know that we will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.

Step 1. Gather all the information in one place with molar masses above the formulas and everything else below them.

MM: ___28.01 2.016 ___32.04

_______CO + 2H_2 → CH_3OH

Mass/g: 7.0 __2.5

Step 2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

Moles of CO = 7.0 g CO × (1 mol CO/28.01g CO) = 0.250 mol CO

Moles of H_2 =2.5 g H_2 × (1 mol H_2/2.016 g H_2) = 1.24 mol H_2

Step 3. Identify the limiting reactant

Calculate the moles of CH_3OH we can obtain from each reactant.

From CO: Moles of CH_3OH = 0.250 mol CO × (1 mol CH_3OH /1 mol CO)

= 0.250 mol CH_3OH

From H_2: Moles of CH_3OH = 1.24 mol H_2 × (1 mol CH_3OH /2 mol H_2)

= 0.620 mol CH_3OH

CO is the limiting reactant because it gives the smaller amount of CH_3OH.

Step 4. Calculate the mass of CH_3OH

Mass of CH_3OH = 0.250 mol CH_3OH × (32.04 g CH_3OH /1 mol CH_3OH) = 8.0 g CH_3OH

Which of the following are produced when a base is dissolved in water?

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer is: B. Hydroxide ions.

An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻).

For example sodium hydroxide: NaOH(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).

Another example, balanced chemical reaction: Ba(OH)₂(aq) → Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq).

According to the Arrhenius definition barium hydroxide is base.

Acids and bases when react (neutralisation) produce salt and water.

In what applications might coal replace petroleum based fuel

JulsSmile [24]

Coal can replace petroleum base fuel when you are just heating something that dont need big amount of heat. examples of it is when producing steam, coal is just used to heat water and produce steam because coal is much cheaper and the coal can already do the job in heating the water
