Chapter 4, Problem 17QAP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Perchloric acid should be classified as acid, base, weak acid or weak base.

Concept introduction:

Acids are those compounds which donates a proton to another compound whereas bases are those compounds which accept a proton from another substance.

Acid produces H+ ions when it dissolves in water whereas base produces OH ions when it dissolves in water.

Strong acid or base is a substance which ionizes completely into its constituents ions in water.

Weak base or acid is a substance which doesn’t ionize completely into its constituents ions in water.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Cesium hydroxide should be classified as acid, base, weak acid or weak base.

Concept introduction:

Acids are those compounds which donates a proton to another compound whereas bases are those compounds which accept a proton from another substance.

Acid produces H+ ions when it dissolves in water whereas base produces OH ions when it dissolves in water.

Strong acid or base is a substance which ionizes completely into its constituents ions in water.

Weak base or acid is a substance which doesn’t ionize completely into its constituents ions in water.

Interpretation Introduction

Complete and balance the following acid-base and acid-carbonate reactions. (Use the lowest possible whole number coefficients.) (a)    HCl + Ba(OH)2 → (b)    HCl + Al2(CO3)3 → (c)    H3PO4 + LiHCO3 → (d)    Al(OH)3 + H2SO4 →
A key step in balancing chemical equations is correctly identifyingthe formulas of the reactants and products. For example,consider the reaction between calcium oxide, CaO(s),and H2O(l) to form aqueous calcium hydroxide. (a) Write abalanced chemical equation for this combination reaction,having correctly identified the product as Ca(OH)2(aq).(b) Is it possible to balance the equation if you incorrectly identifythe product as CaOH(aq), and if so, what is the equation?
Classify each of these as an acid or a base. Which are strong and which are weak? What ions are produced when each is dissolved in water? (Use one answer blank per ion.) (a) NH3 NH3 is a (b) HI HI is a (c) Sr(OH)2 Sr(OH)2 is a The ions formed when dissolved in water are The ions formed when dissolved in water are The ions formed when dissolved in water are and and and
