1. What is the Arrhenius definition of an acid?
|
1. An Arrhenius acid increases the amount of H+ ions in an aqueous solution. |
|
3. Predict the products of each acid-base combination listed. Assume that a neutralization reaction occurs.
|

11. Write the complete and net ionic equations for the neutralization reaction between HClO3(aq) and Zn(OH)2(s). Assume the salt is soluble. |
11. Complete ionic equation: 2H+(aq) + 2ClO3−(aq) + Zn2+(aq) + 2OH−(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + 2ClO3−(aq) + 2H2O(ℓ) Net ionic equation: 2H+(aq) + 2OH−(aq) → 2H2O(ℓ) |
|
13. Explain why the net ionic equation for the neutralization reaction between HCl(aq) and KOH(aq) is the same as the net ionic equation for the neutralization reaction between HNO3(aq) and RbOH. |
13. Because the salts are soluble in both cases, the net ionic reaction is just H+(aq) + OH−(aq) → H2O(ℓ). |
|
15. Write the complete and net ionic equations for the neutralization reaction between HCl(aq) and KOH(aq) using the hydronium ion in place of H+. What difference does it make when using the hydronium ion? |
15. Complete ionic equation: H3O+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + K+(aq) + OH−(aq) → 2H2O(ℓ) + K+(aq) + Cl−(aq) Net ionic equation: H3O+(aq) + OH−(aq) → 2H2O(ℓ) The difference is simply the presence of an extra water molecule as a product. |
