Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The balanced net ionic equation for acetic acid and strontium hydroxide in water should be written.
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
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.
Acid-Base reaction: When an acidic water solution is mixed with a basic water solution, an acid-base reaction takes place. The equation and nature of the reaction depends upon whether the base and acid involved in the reaction are strong or weak.
A chemical equation which shows only the species that are participated in the reaction is said to be net ionic equation.
(b)
Interpretation:
The balanced net ionic equation for sulfuric acid and diethylamine in water should be written.
Concept introduction:
