(a)
The single-replacement reaction will occur or will not occur in the given reaction:
Na + KCl ( aq ) → K + NaCl ( aq )
(a)
Answer to Problem 13E
Explanation of Solution
Given info: Refer to the table 13.5 in the textbook.
Explanation:
The loss of electrons from an atom or ion is called oxidation. The gain of electrons from an atom is called reduction. When
The activity of metal is determined by its tendency to lose electrons to form ions as compared to another metal or to hydrogen ions.
If an element X is placed above element Y in the activity series, then element X is more active than element Y and will replace Y from compound YZ. This process is called single-replacement reaction.
The reaction between
In the above reaction, an element
Conclusion:
Therefore, The single-replacement reaction will not occur in the given reaction:
(b)
The single-replacement reaction will occur or will not occur in the given reaction:
Ni + CuBr 2 ( aq ) → Cu + NiBr 2 ( aq )
(b)
Answer to Problem 13E
Explanation of Solution
Given info: Refer to the table 13.5 in the textbook.
Explanation:
The loss of electrons from an atom or ion is called oxidation. The gain of electrons from an atom is called reduction. When oxidation and reduction reaction occurs simultaneously. The process is called redox reaction.
The activity of metal is determined by its tendency to lose electrons to form ions as compared to another metal or to hydrogen ions.
If an element X is placed above element Y in the activity series, then element X is more active than element Y and will replace Y from compound YZ. This process is called single-replacement reaction.
The reaction between
In the above reaction, an element
Conclusion:
Therefore, the single-replacement reaction will occur in the given reaction:
(c)
The single-replacement reaction will occur or will not occur in the given reaction:
2 Al + 6 HCl ( aq ) → 3 H 2 + 2 AlCl 3 ( aq )
(c)
