Answer:

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 ===> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

This a neutralisation reaction. The first thing to note is that this type of reaction forms salt and water.

Note that the formula of water is H2O. So write this at the right hand side.

                                    ==> H2O

Next note that the salt should contain the acid radical (NO3) and the metallic part of the base (Ca) written well following the rule for writing chemical equation; thus

                            ==> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

The next step is to write the reactants at the right hand side of the equation;

HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 ==> Ca(NO3)2 + H2O

The final step is to count the number of atoms in each side of the equation to make sure they are equal and balanced.

In the above equation, H atoms are three at the left hand side add 2 to to H- containig compound on both side as to balance up. Thus

2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 ===> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O

The equation 2HNO3 + Ca(OH)2 ===> Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O is balance.

what is the percent yield of NaCl if 31.0 g of CuCl reacts with excess NaNo3 to produce 21.2 g of NaCl
olchik [2.2K]
Percentage Yield = (Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100  

The Actual Yield is given in the question as 21.2 g of NaCl.  However, in order to find the theoretical yield, you have to write a balanced equation and use the mole ratio to calculate the mass of NaCl that would be produced.

Balanced Equation:   CuCl + NaNO₃    →    NaCl + CuNO₃

Moles of CuCl = Mass of CuCl ÷ Molar Mass of CuCl
                         =  31.0 g ÷ (63.5 + 35.5)g/mol
                         = 0.31 mol

the mole ratio of CuCl to NaCl is 1  :  1,
∴ if moles of CuCl = 0.31  mol,

then moles of NaCl = 0.31 mol

Now, Mass of NaCl = Moles of NaCl × Molar Mass of NaCl
                                 =  0.31 mol × (23 + 35.5) g/mol
                                 =  18.32 g

⇒ the THEORETICAL Yield of NaCl, in this case, is 18.32 g.

Now, since Percentage Yield = (Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100  

⇒ Percentage Yield of NaCl = (21.2g ÷ 18.32g) × 100  
                                                = 115.7 %


NOTE: Typically, the percentage yield of a reaction is less than 100%, however in a case where the mass of the substance is weighed with impurities, then that mass may be in excess of 100% as seen here.

The. bond dissociation enthalpies of the H-H bond and the H-Cl bond are 435 kJ mol^-1 and 431 kJ mol^-1, respectively. The ΔHfO
Novay_Z [31]

The bond dissociation energy of the Cl - Cl bond is -958 kJ mol^-1.

<h3>What is the dissociation enthalpy?</h3>

Given that;

H-H bond energy =  435 kJ mol^-1

H-Cl bond energy = 431 kJ mol^-1

ΔHfO of HCL(g) = -92kJ mol^-1

Bond dissociation enthalpy of the Cl-Cl bond = x

-92 = 435  +  431 + x

x = -92 - (435  +  431)

x = -958 kJ mol^-1

What two substances are formed at the end point of a neutralization reaction
Slav-nsk [51]
Most likely the answer is water and a salt. When a strong acid and strong base react the OH and H form water and the cation from the base and anion from the acid forms a salt. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
