Chapter 13, Problem 82QAP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The net ionic equation to show acidity of ${\mathrm{FeCl}}_3$ salt in water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A salt is acidic if it is made of strong acid and weak base. It is basic, if it is formed from a strong base and weak acid. If a strong acid and strong base react to from a salt, it will be neutral in nature.

The net ionic equation is an equation in which the same ions in both sides of the reaction arrow gets cancelled out they are known as spectator ions.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The net ionic equation for neutral salt ${\text{BaI}}_{\text{2}}$ in water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A salt is acidic if it is made of strong acid and weak base. It is basic, if it is formed from a strong base and weak acid. If a strong acid and strong base react to from a salt, it will be neutral in nature.

The net ionic equation is an equation in which the same ions in both sides of the reaction arrow gets cancelled out they are known as spectator ions.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The net ionic equation for acidic salt ${\text{NH}}_{\text{4}}{\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}$ in water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A salt is acidic if it is made of strong acid and weak base. It is basic, if it is formed from a strong base and weak acid. If a strong acid and strong base react to from a salt, it will be neutral in nature.

The net ionic equation is an equation in which the same ions in both sides of the reaction arrow gets cancelled out they are known as spectator ions.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The net ionic equation for basic salt ${\text{Na}}_{\text{2}}{\text{HPO}}_{\text{4}}$ in water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A salt is acidic if it is made of strong acid and weak base. It is basic, if it is formed from a strong base and weak acid. If a strong acid and strong base react to from a salt, it will be neutral in nature.

The net ionic equation is an equation in which the same ions in both sides of the reaction arrow gets cancelled out they are known as spectator ions.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The net ionic equation for the basic salt ${\text{K}}_3{\text{PO}}_{\text{4}}$ in water needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

A salt is acidic if it is made of strong acid and weak base. It is basic, if it is formed from a strong base and weak acid. If a strong acid and strong base react to from a salt, it will be neutral in nature.

The net ionic equation is an equation in which the same ions in both sides of the reaction arrow gets cancelled out they are known as spectator ions.
