Write a balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid (as an aqueous solution) with solid sodium bicarbonate, showing all ions present. Make sure you show states. What gas is formed in this reaction? Write a net ionic equation for the reaction of acetic acid with sodium bicarbonate if the bicarbonate is already dissolved in water when the reaction occurs. How many moles are present in the 5.00 g of sodium bicarbonate you used for this experiment?
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
- Write a balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid (as an aqueous solution) with solid sodium bicarbonate, showing all ions present. Make sure you show states. What gas is formed in this reaction?
- Write a net ionic equation for the reaction of acetic acid with sodium bicarbonate if the bicarbonate is already dissolved in water when the reaction occurs.
- How many moles are present in the 5.00 g of sodium bicarbonate you used for this experiment?
- How many moles of gas would be produced if this amount of sodium bicarbonate reacted completely with acetic acid, which you added as vinegar?
- What volume would this amount of gas occupy at room temperature (25.0 °C)? At refrigerator temperatures (4.0 °C)? Or at freezer temperature (−20.0 °C)?
