Concept introduction:
The process in which the reactants combine to form a new product is called a chemical reaction. A chemical reaction can be represented using a chemical equation. A balanced equation is the one where the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the equation.

Chemistry for Today: General, Organic, and Biochemistry
- Explain the difference between a monoprotic acid, a diprotic acid, and a triprotic acid. Give an example of each.arrow_forwardPhosphoric add can supply one, two, or three H3O+ ions in aqueous solution. Write balanced equations (like those for sulfuric acid on page 142) to show this successive loss of hydrogen ions.arrow_forwardGive an example of a polyprotic acid and write equations for the successive neutralizations of the acidic hydrogen atoms of the acid molecule to produce a series of salts.arrow_forward
- n Chapter 14. you learned that the bonding forces in ionic solids such as NaCl are very strong, yet many ionic solids dissolve readily in water. Explain.arrow_forward. Why do scientists tend to express the acidity of a solution in terms of its Ph, rather than in terms of the molarity of hydrogen ion present? How is pH defined mathematically?arrow_forwardOne half liter (500. mL) of 2.50 M HCl is mixed with 250. mL of 3.75 M HCl. Assuming the total solution volume after mixing is 750. mL, what is the concentration of hydrochloric acid in the resulting solution? What is its pH?arrow_forward
- What is the net ionic equation for the reaction of acetic acid and sodium hydroxide? (a) H3O+(aq) + OH(aq) 2 H2O(l) (b) Na+(aq) + CH3CO2(aq) NaCH3CO2(aq) (c) CH3CO2H(aq) + OH(aq) H2O(l) + CH3CO2(aq) (d) CH3CO2H(aq) + NaOH(aq) H2O(l) NaCH3CO2(aq)arrow_forwardSome of the substances commonly used in stomach antacids are MgO, Mg(OH)2, and Al(OH)3. a. Write a balanced equation for the neutralization of hydrochloric acid by each of these substances. b. Which of these substances will neutralize the greatest amount of 0.10 M HCl per gram?arrow_forwardWhat strong acid and what strong base would react in aqueous solution to produce the following salts? potassium perchlorate, KClO4 sium nitrate, CsNO3 tassium chloride, KCl dium sulfate, Na2SO4arrow_forward
- Potassium is a very reactive metal, but in compounds it is present as the potassium ion and is not very reactive. For example, dry potassium bicarbonate powder can be used to extinguish burning liquids. Why is there such a difference in the reactivity of potassium metal and the potassium ion? A. The potassium in the bicarbonate salt is a base, but the potassium metal is an acid. B. The potassium in the bicarbonate salt is an acid, but the potassium metal is a base. C. The combustion of the liquids suppresses the potassium's ability to react. D. The potassium metal can readily ionize by losing its one valence electron; the potassium in the bicarbonate salt is already ionized. E. The potassium atom is bonded to an oxygen atom in the bicarbonate salt, but in the metal it is unbound and free to react.arrow_forward3. Differentiate strong acids from weak acids in terms of dissociation. A Differentiate strong bases from weak bases in terms of dissociationarrow_forward8. What is pH of a solution? Draw a pH scale (horizontally) showing neutral pH, and acid and basic region. Name few household items which are acidic and basic.arrow_forward
