Classify each of the following as a Strong acid (sa) or a Weak acid (wa) and indicate how each should be written in aqueous solution. 1. hydrobromic acid
2. hydrochloric acid
3. carbonic acid
Write a net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid and barium hydroxide are combined.

A. 1. Strong acid (sa): Hydrobromic acid: HBr (aq)

2. Strong acid (sa); Hydrochloric acid: HCl (aq)

3. Weak acid (wa); Carbonic acid: H₂CO₃ (aq)

B. H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) > H₂O (l)

Explanation:

Strong acids are which ionize completely in aqueous solution into hydrogen ions and the corresponding anion. Examples of strong acids include hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, tetraoxosulfate (vi) acid.

The ionization of hdyrobromic and hydrochloric acids in aqueous solution is given below:

1. Hydrobromic acid: HBr (aq) > H+ (aq) + Br- (aq)

Hydrobromic acid in aqueous solution ionizes completely into hydrogen ions and bromide ions

2. Hydrochloric acid: HCl (aq) > H+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)

Hydrochloric acid in aqueous solution ionizes completely into hydrogen ions and chloride ions

Weak acids are acids which ionizes only partially in aqueous solutions to hydrogen ions and the corresponding anions. Examples of weak acids are carbonic acid and ethanoic acid. The ionization of carbonic acid in aqueous solution is shown below:

3. Carbonic acid: H₂CO₃ (aq) ⇄ 2 H+ (aq) + CO₃²- (aq)

Carbonic acid ionizes partially only to give hydrogen ions and trioxocarbonate (iv) ions. The unionized acid exists in equilibrium with the ions produced by the partial ionization of the acid.

Part B:

The reaction between hydrochloric acid and barium hydroxide is a neutralization reaction producing barium chloride salt and water.

The net ionic equation of the neutralization reaction is given below :

H+ (aq) + OH- (aq) > H₂O (l)

in the analysis of systems that involve fluid flow, we frequently encounter the combination of properties u and pv.

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
