Write a net ionic equation for the reaction between aqueous solutions of
(a) ammonia and hydrofluoric acid.
(b) perchloric acid and rubidium hydroxide.
(c) sodium sulfite and hydriodic acid.
(d) nitric acid and calcium hydroxide.
(a)
Interpretation: The concentration of ammonia for the given conditions of complex ions needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The coordination complexes and complex ions are formed by the combination of metal ion and ligands. Here, ligands are the electron donating atoms or molecules. Therefore, ligands form coordinate bond with metal ion. The stability of coordination complexes can be determined in terms of their formation constant. It is represented as Kf. It is the ratio of product and reactant at equilibrium condition of formation of coordinate complex.

- The hydrogen phthalate ion, C8HsO4, is a weak acid with Ka = 3.91 106. C8H5O4(aq)+H2O(l)C8H4O42(aq)+H3O+(aq) What is the pH of a 0.050 M solution of potassium hydrogen phthalate. KC8H5O4? Note: To find the pH for a solution of the anion, we must take into account that the ion is amphiprotic. It can be shown that, for most cases of amphiprotic ions, the H3O+ concentration is [H3O+]=Ka1Ka2 For phthalic acid, C8H6O4 is Ka1 is 1.12 103, and Ka2 is 3.91 106.arrow_forwardWhat must the ratio of H2PO4 to HPO42 be to have a buffer with a pH value of 7.00?arrow_forwardWhich salt would you expect to dissolve readily in acidic solution, calcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4)2, or calcium sulfate, CaSO4?
