Question
What are the products in the complete ionic equation for the following reaction: HBr + KOH--- products A) H2O and KBr B) K+, Br- and H2O C) H2O, K+, Br2 D) KH, H2O, and BrOH E) KH and BrOH Please explain why!What are the products in the complete ionic equation for the following reaction: HBr + KOH--- products A) H2O and KBr B) K+, Br- and H2O C) H2O, K+, Br2 D) KH, H2O, and BrOH E) KH and BrOH Please explain why!
A) H2O and KBr B) K+, Br- and H2O C) H2O, K+, Br2 D) KH, H2O, and BrOH E) KH and BrOH Please explain why!
Explanation / Answer
Answer : A
when acid and base will reacts it will form water and salt.
HBr +KOH ------> H2O + KBr.
net ionic equvation K+1+ Br-1-----> KBr salt
B not correct. they mentioned separately K+, Br - and H2O ,. they combined KBr salt and H2O.
C. not correct. there is no formation of Br2 , K+ separately, as a reaction even stachimetric ratio also no two bromine atoms.
D.and E not correct. it cann't react acid and base, there is no formation of BrOH and KH, because OH- and Br -abstracts protons, (electronegative)should form salt (KBr)and water
