(a)
Interpretation: Net ionic equation for the given reaction should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Ionic equation is an equation in which ions are explicitly shown.
Spectator ions are the ion that appears unchanged on both sides of a reaction arrow.
Net ionic equation is the chemical equation for a reaction which lists only those species participating in the reaction.
To write the net ionic equation, steps mentioned below must be followed.
- 1. Write the balanced molecular equation
- 2. Write the ionic equation showing the strong electrolytes completely dissociated into cations and anions.
- 3. Cancel the spectator ions on both sides of the ionic equation.
- 4. Check that charges and number of atoms are balanced in the net ionic equation.

- Researchers isolated an unknown substance, X, from rabbit muscle. They determined its structure from the following observations and experiments. (a) Qualitative analysis showed that X was composed entirely of C, H, and O. A weighed sample of X was completely oxidized and the H2O and CO2 produced were measured. This quantitative analysis revealed that X contained 40.00% C, 6.71% H, and 53.29% O by weight. (b) The molecular mass of X, as determined by mass spectrometry, was 90.00 atomic mass units (u). (c) Infrared spectroscopy showed that X contained one double bond. (d) X dissolved readily in water, and the solution demonstrated optical activity when tested in a polarimeter. (e) The aqueous solution of X is acidic.
