Step by step solution

01

Balancing equations

First, we balance the reactants and products for each chemical reaction, which simplifies to: \(a) \( \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH}(a q)+\mathrm{KOH}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOK}(a q)+\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \ (b) \( \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}(a q)+2\mathrm{NaOH}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}(a q)+2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \(c) \( 2\mathrm{HNO}_{3}(a q)+\mathrm{Ba}(\mathrm{OH})_{2}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Ba}(\mathrm{NO}_{3})_{2}(a q)+2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \)
02

Writing ionic equations

We show the ions of every compound that is dissolved in water: \(a) \( \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COO}^{-}(a q)+\mathrm{H}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{K}^{+}(a q)+ \mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COO}^{-}(a q)+\mathrm{K}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \(b) \( 2\mathrm{H}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{CO}_{3}^{2-}(a q)+2\mathrm{Na}^{+}(a q)+2\mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow 2\mathrm{Na}^{+}(a q)+\mathrm{CO}_{3}^{2-}(a q)+2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \(c) \( 2\mathrm{H}^{+}(a q)+2\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}(a q)+\mathrm{Ba}^{2+}(a q)+2\mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Ba}^{2+}(a q)+2\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}(a q)+2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \)
03

Writing net ionic equations

We discard ions that are reactive as well as present on both sides of the equation (spectator ions): \(a) \( \mathrm{H}^{+}(a q) + \mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \(b) \( 2\mathrm{H}^{+}(a q) + 2\mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \rightarrow 2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \) \(c) \( 2\mathrm{H}^{+}(a q) + 2\mathrm{OH}^{-}(a q) \rightarrow 2\mathrm{H}_{2}\mathrm{O}(l) \)

A \(46.2-\mathrm{mL}, 0.568 M\) calcium nitrate \(\left[\mathrm{Ca}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2}\right]\) solution is mixed with \(80.5 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(1.396 \mathrm{M}\) calcium nitrate solution. Calculate the concentration of the final solution.

How many grams of \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) are required to precipitate most of the \(\mathrm{Ag}^{+}\) ions from \(2.50 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(0.0113 \mathrm{MAgNO}_{3}\) solution? Write the net ionic equation for the reaction.

A 0.8870 -g sample of a mixture of \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) and \(\mathrm{KCl}\) is dissolved in water, and the solution is then treated with an excess of \(\mathrm{AgNO}_{3}\) to yield \(1.913 \mathrm{~g}\) of \(\mathrm{AgCl}\). Calculate the percent by mass of each compound in the mixture.

Acetylsalicylic acid \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{9} \mathrm{H}_{8} \mathrm{O}_{4}\right)\) is a monoprotic acid commonly known as "aspirin." A typical aspirin tablet, however, contains only a small amount of the acid. In an experiment to determine its composition, an aspirin tablet was crushed and dissolved in water. It took \(12.25 \mathrm{~mL}\) of \(0.1466 \mathrm{M} \mathrm{NaOH}\) to neutralize the solution. Calculate the number of grains of aspirin in the tablet. (One grain \(=0.0648 \mathrm{~g}\).)

The concentration of \(\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}\) ions in the water (which also contains sulfate ions) discharged from a certain industrial plant is determined by adding excess sodium sulfide \(\left(\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}\right)\) solution to \(0.800 \mathrm{~L}\) of the water. The molecular equation is $$ \mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{~S}(a q)+\mathrm{CuSO}_{4}(a q) \longrightarrow_{\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}(a q)+\operatorname{CuS}(s)} $$ Write the net ionic equation and calculate the molar concentration of \(\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}\) in the water sample if \(0.0177 \mathrm{~g}\) of solid \(\mathrm{CuS}\) is formed.
