1. When carbon dioxide is bubble through a clear solution of calcium hydroxide, a milky solution of calcium carbonate will be formed. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows: 
CO2 + Ca[OH]2 = CaCO3 + H2O.
That is, one mole of carbon dioxide react with one mole of calcium hydroxide to produce one mole each of water and calcium carbonate.

2. An acidic oxide is defined as those compounds of oxygen which react with water to form acids or react with bases to form salts. They are usually oxides of metals or of metals in high oxidation states.
 In the chemical equation given in answer 1, one can easily see that carbon dioxide is an acidic oxide because it reacts with calcium hydroxide [which is a base] to produce calcium carbonate, which is a salt.

you are given an unknown gaseous binary compound. when 10.0g of the compound isburned in excess oxygen, 16.3g of water is produc
Flauer [41]
Since the compound has 1.38 time that of oxygen gas at the same conditions of temperature and pressure, we have the relationship:
MW/MWoxygen = 1.38
MW = 44.16

Since there is water formed during the reaction, the formula of the compound must be:
XaHb
where a and b are the coefficients of each element.

If the compound reactions with oxygen forming water and an oxide of the element X, the combustion reaction must be:
XaHb + ((2a + (b/2))/2) O2 = a (XO2) + (b/2)(H2O)
Using dimensional analysis:
10 (1/44.16) (b/2 / 1) (18) = 16.3
Solving for b:
b = 8

The compound now is XaH8. Most probably, the compound is C3H8 since it has a molecular formula of 44 and it reacts with O2 to form water and CO2.

What weight of sodium hydroxide will react with 73 gram of hydrogen chloride gas at NTP to Produce 117.0 gram of Nacl and 36 gra
Wewaii [24]

Let's write the equation

\\ \sf\longmapsto {NaOH\atop ?}+{HCl\atop 73g}\longrightarrow {NaCl\atop 117g}+{H_2O\atop 36g}

According to law of conservation of mass .

  • Mass of products=Mass of reactants

Let required value be x

\\ \sf\longmapsto x+73=117+36

\\ \sf\longmapsto x+73=153

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=153-73

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=80g

What is the definition of a common ion as it applies to Le Chatelier’s principle?
navik [9.2K]
The definition of a common ion as it applies to Le Chatelier's principle is an ion that is present in an equilibrium system and a compound added to the system. This is the case since in Le Chatelier's principle, it is based on an equilibrium system and where the reaction shifts to the left or to the right; towards the products or the reactants side.
