5 0

Answer:

A. Acidic

B. Neutral

C. Basic

D. Acidic

E. Basic

Explanation:

The reaction of salts with water to give aqueous solutions which are either acidic, basic or neutral is known as salt hydrolysis. Salts that are produced from the reaction of strong acids and weak bases give acidic solutions. Salts that are produced the reaction between weak acids and strong bases give basic solutions. Neutral solutions are obtained from salts produced bynthe reaction of strong acids and strong bases.

The hydrolysis of the given salts are shown below:

A. AlCl₃ + 3 H₂O ---> 3 HCl + Al(OH)₃

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HCl is a strong acid while Al(OH)₃ is a weak base.

B. NaBr + H₂O ----> HBr + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be neutral since HBr is a strong acid and NaOH is strong base as well.

C. NaClO + H₂O ----> HClO + NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since HClO is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

D. CH₃NH₃NO₃ + H₂O ----> HNO₃ + CH₃NH₂ + H₂O

The aqueous solution produced will be acidic since HNO₃ is a strong acid while CH₃NH₂ is a weak base.

E. Na₂SO₃ + 2 H₂O ----> H₂SO₃ + 2 NaOH

The aqueous solution produced will be basic since H₂SO₃ is a weak acid while NaOH is a strong base.

What causes “gaps in the rock record” and how is that described?
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

An unconformity is a widespread surface separating rocks above and below, which represents a gap in the rock record. Unconformities occur when either erosion wears away rocks, or rock deposits never form. Therefore, a time gap exists between when the rocks below the unconformity formed and when those above it formed.

Which half-reaction correctly represents reduction?
Neko [114]

Answer: B. Ca2+   +  2e- --------->   Ca

Explanation:

Reduction involves the gaining of electrons as well as a decrease in the oxidation state of the atom or ion.

In this case; Ca2+ gains two electrons and the oxidation state is reduced from +2 to  0.

Ca2+   +  2e- --------->   Ca

Scientists in a lab are working on a series of experiments that involve colliding two or more atomic nuclei at very high speeds
Ket [755]

Answer: Scientists are working on nuclear fusion process. Nuclear fusion is the process in which two atomic nuclei combine to form another nuclei. In the process either energy is absorbed or released due to the difference in the mass of reactants and products.
