To determine the concentration of a sample of calcium hydroxide, 1.45M HCl is added drop-wise using a burst. Write the balanced net ionic equation for the acid-base reaction.

H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) —> H2O(l)

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction.

2HCl(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) —> CaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Ca(OH)2 is a strong base and will dissociates as follow:

Ca(OH)2(aq) —> Ca^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq)

HCl is a strong acid and will dissociates as follow:

HCl(aq) —> H^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)

Thus, In solution a double displacement reaction occurs as shown below:

2H^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) + Ca^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) —> Ca^2+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) + 2H2O(l)

To get the net ionic equation, cancel out Ca^2+ and 2Cl^-

2H^+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) —> 2H2O(l)

H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) —> H2O(l)

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.
