Predict the products formed from the following gas evolution equation.

NH₄Cl (aq) + NaOH (aq) →

Accepted Answer

here. The practice question states predict the products formed from the following gas evolution equation. So remember, Step one, we're gonna break up reacting one and reacted to into their ionic forms. So here we have ammonium chloride, which breaks up into the ammonium ion, which is N h four positive one, the chloride ion, which is C l minus one sodium hydroxide. We're gonna have an A plus one and hydroxide O H minus one. Now remember, opposite charges attract one another. So here, this plus one, and this minus one are now attracted to one another because the numbers and their charges are the same. They just cancel out when they combine. So this would be N H 40 h. A quiz. Because anything connected to ammonium ion is a quiz according to our saw liability rules. And then we're gonna have here minus one and plus one attracted to one another. Again, if the numbers in the charges are the same, they just cancel out when they combine. N a is a group one element. Anything connects to Group one is acquis according to our Saudi ability rules. Finally, we need to realize that we just created ammonium hydroxide that is a median product. Remember, when we have a median product, we just subtract water from it, and the remaining portion would represent our newly created gas. So we subtract water from this, and we know that our two new products so remember we don't make that are two new products with their four b NH three gas plus H +20 liquid here. Everything would be a 1 to 1 relationship if we were to count up each of the elements. And we know it's a 1 to 1 relationship because our charges are all either plus one or minus one. So just determining the final products is enough forced to have a balanced gas evolution equation at the end.
