- 1. Sometimes a reaction can fall in more than one category. Into what category (or categories) does the reaction of Ba(OH)2(aq) + H+PO4(aq) fit? acid-base and oxidation-reduction oxidation-reduction acid-base and precipitation precipitationarrow_forwardA soluble iodide was dissolved in water. Then an excess of silver nitrate, AgNO3, was added to precipitate all of the iodide ion as silver iodide, AgI. If 1.545 g of the soluble iodide gave 2.185 g of silver iodide, how many grams of iodine are in the sample of soluble iodide? What is the mass percentage of iodine, I, in the compound?arrow_forwardArsenic acid, H3AsO4, is a poisonous acid that has been used in the treatment of wood to prevent insect damage. Arsenic acid has three acidic protons. Say you take a 25.00-mL sample of arsenic acid and prepare it for titration with NaOH by adding 25.00 mL of water. The complete neutralization of this solution requires the addition of 53.07 mL of 0.6441 M NaOH solution. Write the balanced chemical reaction for the titration, and calculate the molarity of the arsenic acid sample.arrow_forward
- Write a balanced equation for the reaction of hydroiodic acid, HI, with calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2. Then, write the balanced complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for this neutralization reaction.arrow_forwardAn antacid tablet contains sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO3, and inert ingredients. A 0.465-g sample of powdered tablet was mixed with 53.3 mL of 0.190 M HCl (hydrochloric acid). The mixture was allowed to stand until it reacted. NaHCO3(s)+HCl(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l)+CO2(g) The excess hydrochloric acid was titrated with 54.6 mL of 0.128 M NaOH (sodium hydroxide). HCl(aq)+NaOH(aq)NaCl(aq)+H2O(l) What is the percentage of sodium hydrogen carbonate in the antacid?arrow_forwardA solution of hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, is titrated with a solution of potassium permanganate, KMnO4. The reaction is 5H2O2(aq)+2KMnO4(aq)+3H2SO4(aq)5O2(g)+2MnSO4(aq)+K2SO4(aq)+8H2O(l) It requires 51.7 mL of 0.145 M KMnO4 to titrate 20.0 g of the solution of hydrogen peroxide. What is the mass percentage of H2O2 in the solution?arrow_forward
- Sodium chloride is used in intravenous solutions for medical applications. The NaCl concentration in such solutions must be accurately known and can be assessed by reacting the solution with an experimentally determined volume of AgNO3 solution of known concentration. The net ionic equation is Ag+(aq)+Cl(aq)AgCl(s) Suppose that a chemical technician uses 19.3 mL of 0.200-M AgNO3 to convert all the NaCl in a 25.0-mL sample of an intravenous solution to AgCl. Calculate the molarity of NaCl in the solution.arrow_forwardAn antacid tablet has calcium carbonate as the active ingredient; other ingredients include a starch binder. You dissolve the tablet in hydrochloric acid and filter off insoluble material. You add potassium oxalate to the filtrate (containing calcium ion) to precipitate calcium oxalate. If a tablet weighing 0.750 g gave 0.629 g of calcium oxalate, what is the mass percentage of active ingredient in the tablet?arrow_forward
