Neutralization reactions are the reactions type which form salts.
Explanation:
Salts are formed by ionic bonds when the oxidation states of anions and cations are equal and have opposite signs. So one should be highly electronegative in nature and another should be highly electropositive in nature. So the electropositive element will be ready to give electrons and the electronegative element will be ready to accept all the electrons given by the electropositive element. As a whole the compound will be neutrally charged by adding of equal number of positively charged and negatively charged ions.
The reduction or addition of electrons will be occurring in cations and the oxidation or removal of electrons will be occurring in anions.
So the salt formation is based on neutralization reactions.
Answer:
Extensive or inextinsive and either physical or chemical
The answer is A. Has a low pH in solution.
Answer:
15.4%
Explanation:
If Ka = 0.54 mM = 1.51x10⁻⁵
Then;
C₄H₈O₂ --------> C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H⁺
I 0.54x10⁻³ 0 0
E 0.54x10⁻³(1-x) 0.54x10⁻³x 0.54x10⁻³x
Recall that x is the percentage degree of dissociation
From the ICE table;
Ka = [C₄H₇O₂⁻] [ H⁺]/[C₄H₈O₂]
1.51x10⁻⁵=(0.54x10⁻³x) (0.54x10⁻³x)/ 0.54x10⁻³(1-x)
1.51x10⁻⁵ = 0.54x10⁻³x^2/1-x
1.51x10⁻⁵(1-x) = 0.54x10⁻³x^2
1.51x10⁻⁵ - 1.51x10⁻⁵x = 0.54x10⁻³x^2
Hence;
0.54x10⁻³x^2 + 1.51x10⁻⁵x - 1.51x10⁻⁵=0
x^2 + 0.028x - 0.028 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation here;
x = 0.154 or −0.182
Ignoring the negative result, x = 0.154
Hence, fraction of butanoic acid that is in the dissociated form in this solution = 15.4%
