Chapter F, Problem J.7E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The acid and base solutions that can be used to prepare potassium bromide has to be given and also the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction has to be written.

Concept Introduction:

Reaction between the acid and base is known as a neutralization reaction.  The product formed in neutralization reaction is salt and water.  The net reaction that takes place between the acid and base solutions is that the formation of water from hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions.  Neutralization reaction is the one that takes place between a strong acid and a metal hydroxide.

    $\text{Acid}+\text{Base}\to \text{Salt}+\text{Water}$
