Choose whether each statement below is true or false for the reaction between a solution of HNO2and a solid Ca(OH)2.

Choose whether each statement below is true or false for the reaction between a solution of HNO2and a solid Ca(OH)2.

  1. These reactants can not produce an acid-base reaction because the weak acid is not strong enough to dissolve the solid Ca(OH)2.                                 
  2. Assuming this reaction does take place if you write the balanced molecular reaction, in standard form, the reaction shows that for every one mole of the base used in the reaction there are twomoles of water produced.                               
  3. Assuming this reaction does take place if you write the NET ionic reaction contains only one product.                            
  4. HNO2 is a weak acid and therefore cannot react with bases since it does not dissociate in solution.
