Chapter 13, Problem 29QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether H2SO4aq is a strong acid, weak acid, strong base or a weak base is to be identified and an equation that describes its reaction with water is to be written.

(a)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

From the table 13.1 (from the book), H2SO4 is a strong acid. H2SO4aq dissociates completely into H3O+ and HSO4 ions in the aqueous solution. Due to this, the aqueous solution becomes more acidic. Hence, H2SO4 is a strong acid. The reaction of H2SO4 with water is shown below.

H2SO4aq+H2OlH3O+aq+HSO4aq

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether CaOH2aq is a strong acid, weak acid, strong base or a weak base is to be identified and an equation that describes its reaction with water is to be written.

(b)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

According to table 13.2 (from the book), CaOH2 is a strong base. CaOH2aq is ionic. It ionizes completely into calcium ions Ca2+ and hydroxide ions OH , which indicates that it is a strong base. The ionization of calcium hydroxide in water is given as shown below.

CaOH2aqCa2+aq+2OHaq

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether Na2CO3aq is a strong acid, strong base, weak acid or a weak base is to be identified and an equation that describes its reaction with water is to be written.

(c)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The conjugate base of a weak acid is strong. Since Na2CO3 is a salt of a weak acid and a strong base, Na2CO3 is a strong base. The reaction of Na2CO3 with water results in the formation of sodium hydroxide and water. The reaction is given as shown below.

Na2CO32NaOH+CO2

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether H3C6H5O7aq is a strong acid, weak acid, strong base or a weak base is to be identified and an equation that describes its reaction with water is to be written.

(d)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The formula H3C6H5O7 is the salt of citric acid. Since citric acid is a weak acid, the conjugate base of a weak acid is strong. Therefore, H3C6H5O7 is a strong base. The reaction of H3C6H5O7aq with water is given as shown below.

H3C6H5O7aq+H2OlH3O+aq+H2C6H5O7aq

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether C6H5NH2aq is a strong acid, weak acid, strong base or a weak base and an equation that describes its reaction with water is to be written.

(e)

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

C6H5NH2aq dissociates partially in water and hence, is a weak base. The reaction of C6H5NH2 with water is given below.

C6H5NH2aq+H2OlC6H5NH3+aq+OHaq
