It forms ions in solution by reacting with water molecules to form the ammonium ion and hydroxide ion. Write the balanced chemical reaction for this process, including state symbols. b From everyday experience you are probably aware that table sugar (sucrose), C12H22O11 , is soluble in water. When sucrose dissolves in water, it doesn’t form ions through any reaction with water. It just dissolves without forming ions, so it is a nonelectrolyte. Write the chemical equation for the dissolving of sucrose in water. c Both NH3 and C12H22O11 are soluble molecular compounds, yet they behavedifferently in aqueous solution. Briefly explain why one is a weak electrolyte and the other is a nonelectrolyte.d Hydrochloric acid, HCl, is a molecular compound that is a strong electrolyte.Write the chemical reaction of HCl with water.e Compare the ammonia reaction with that of hydrochloric acid.

To simplify the calculations let us assume that all of the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts and there is some left over "excess" baking soda. The vinegar solution is a 5% acetic acid solution. If you look at the bottle of vinegar somewhere on there it probably says “5% acidity" or similar notation. Let us estimate that about 25.0 g of vinegar solution was used in this experiment, approximately the mass of the 1 inch depth that was poured into the empty water bottle. Of this 25.0 g solution, only 5% of it is acetic acid. The amount of acetic acid in grams needs to be determined because that is what reacted, not the full 25.0 g solution. The calculation below shows what number is needed. 5% acetic acid solution = { grams acetic acid х 100 25.0 grams acetic acid SOLUTION Solving for results in a value of ? grams acetic acid (HC2H3O2).arrow_forward
