Answer:
CaCO3(aq) → Ca2+(aq ) + CO3 2-(aq)
Explanation:
- Dissolution reactions are reactions that occur when a solute either in gaseous, liquid, or solid form dissolves in a solvent such as water to form a solution.
- In this case we are given Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which undergoes dissolution according to the equation;
- CaCO3(aq) → Ca2+(aq ) + CO3 2-(aq)
- Then<em><u> the bicarbonate ion combines with two protons from water to form a weak acid H2CO3. The weak acid is then broken down to form CO2 and H2O since its unstable.</u></em>
Particles of gas are more scarcely placed as compared to that of liquid.
the intermolecular forces will be less in gaseous state and hence is less stable
Answer:
single replacement
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
single replacement = A reaction in which one element replaces a similar element in a compound. For example, a metal replaces an other metal.
The general form of a single-replacement (also called single-displacement) reaction is:
A+BC→AC+B
Decomposition = a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances. The general form of a decomposition reaction is:
AB→A+B
Synthesis = A reaction that occurs when one or more compounds combines to form a complex compound:
A + B → AB
Double replacement: a reaction in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds.
The general form of a double-replacement reaction is:
AB+CD→AD+BC
Combustion reaction = a reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen gas, releasing energy in the form of light and heat. Combustion reactions must involve O2 as one reactant.
The reaction Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2
⇒ Does not involve O2 = NOT a combustion reaction
⇒ The compounds do not form a complex compound = NOT a synthesis
⇒ A compound does not break down into smaller substances = NOT a decomposition
⇒ There is a replacement between Zn and H. This is a <u>single replacement</u>, not a double replacement reaction.
