Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: To write the balanced equation and the net direction of the reaction along with the explanation of the observation.
Concept introduction: If a strong acid reacts with a strong base and produces a weak base and weak acid, then the net direction of the reaction will be towards the right. Similarly, when a weak acid reacts with a weak base to produce strong acid and a strong base, then the net direction of the reaction will be towards the left.
(b)
Interpretation: To write the balanced equation and also the net direction of the reaction along with the explanation of the observation.
Concept introduction: If a strong acid reacts with a strong base and produces a weak base and weak acid, then the net direction of the reaction will be towards the right. Similarly, when a weak acid reacts with a weak base to produce strong acid and a strong base, then the net direction of the reaction will be towards the left.
(c)
Interpretation: To write the balanced equation and also the net direction of the reaction along with the explanation of the observation.
