Question
1. Solid NH4NO3 dissolves in water and then
reacts with KOH (aq). The container releases a
smell as the reaction proceeds.
(a) Write the acid-base reaction products for this
reaction.
(b) Write the decomposition reaction that
happens immediately after the acid-base
reaction that is responsible for the smell
observed.
2. Write the complete and balanced Bronsted-
Lowry acid-base reaction for the following.
Choose the correct arrows to indicate if the
reaction goes 100% to completion or is a
reversible reaction using equilibrium arrows.
(a) H₂S(aq) + NH4OH(aq)
(b) HC₂H3O2(aq) + Ca(OH)2 (aq)
3. Use dimensional analysis, proper significant
figures & show units. A nicotine-like compound
found in tobacco has an empirical formula of
C5H7O1 and a molar mass of 160 g/mol. What is
the molecular formula of this compound?
