Question

Chemistry 101

Write the

Molecular Equation, AND Ionic Equation, AND Net Ionic Equation for the following reactions.

1. Potassium hydroxide and hydroiodic acid

2. Hydrochloric acid and ammonium hydroxide

Answer 1

Molecular Equation

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq) ----> KCl (aq) + H2O (l)

Ionic Equation

Splitt the ions except "spectator" ions. Here "spectator" ion is water. because  it is a insoluble molecules can't be broken

H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) + K+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> K+ (aq) + Cl- (aq) + H2O (l)

Net Ionic Equation

cancel the ions by seeing on the reactant side and product side of the equation

H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> H2O (l)

Molecular Equation

NH4OH (aq) + HCl (aq) ---> NH4Cl (aq)+ H2O (l)

Ionic Equation

Splitt the ions except "spectator" ions. Here "spectator" ion is water

NH4⁺ + OH⁻ + H⁺ + Cl⁻ ----> NH4⁺ + Cl⁻ + H2O

Net Ionic Equation

cancel the ions by seeing on the reactant side and product side of the equation

H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> H2O (l)
