Question
In lab, you will be measuring the pH of ionic solids that have been dissolved in water.
a) write the dissolution reaction for solid NaClO below. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Include states of matter under the given conditions in your answer.)
b) Once the ionic solid has dissolved, the anion that is formed is able to react as a base, with water as the acid. Write the net acid-base reaction that occurs when dissolved NaClo reacts with water. (Use the lowest possible coefficients. Omit state of matter in your answer.)
Explanation / Answer
NaClO(s) -> Na+(aq) and ClO-(aq) (solid to aqueous solution)
ClO- + H2O <-> HCl + OH- NO state of matter was shown
