Question

1)))The compound potassium sulfate is a strong electrolyte. Write the transformation that occurs when solid potassium sulfate dissolves in water. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s). 2)) The compound silver nitrate is a strong electrolyte. Write the transformation that occurs when solid silver nitrate dissolves in water. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s). 3)) The compound sodium cyanide is a strong electrolyte. Write the transformation that occurs when solid sodium cyanide dissolves in water. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (s).

Explanation / Answer

As all the given compounds are strong electrolyte then we can write as: (1) K2SO4 (s) --------> 2 K+ (aq) + SO42- (aq) (2) AgNO3 (s) --------> Ag+ (aq) + NO3- (aq) (3) NaCN (s) --------> Na+ (aq) + CN- (aq) (s) = Solid state; (aq) =aqua state; AgNO3 (s) + H2O (l)--------> AgNO3 (aq) this would happen if you haven't mentioned anything about silver nitrate.
