In chemistry and physics, a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

What salt is produced in each of the following neutralization reactions? HNO3(aq)+KOH(aq)→H2O(l)+? HNO3(aq)+Ca(OH)2(aq)→H2O(l)+?
Igoryamba

Answer:

1. KNO3

2. Ca(NO3)2

3. CaCl2

4. KCl

Explanation:

In each of the neutralization reactions, the H from one of the reactant(acid) will combine with the OH from the other reactant (base) to form water while the other elements combine to give the salt as shown below:

1. HNO3 + KOH → H2O + KNO3

The salt produced is KNO3

2. 2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2H2O + Ca(NO3)2

The salt produced is Ca(NO3)2

3. 2HCl +Ca(OH)2 → 2H2O + CaCl2

The salt produced is CaCl2

4. HCl +KOH → H2O + KCl

The salt produced is KCl

4. Calculate the relative molecular masses of the following substances [RAM: H=1, O=16, S=32, C=12, N=14] a. CH2(NH2)COOH b. H2S
8090 [49]

Answer:

a. CH2(NH2)COOH

molecular \: mass = (12 \times 2) + (5 \times 1) + (14 \times 1) + (16 \times 2)  \\  = 24 + 5 + 14 + 32 \\  = 75 \: grams

b. H2SO4

molecular \: mass = (2 \times 1) + 32 + (16 \times 4) \\  = 2 + 32 + 64\\  = 98 \: grams
