Question

question 11
select the correct set of (unbalanced) products for the following reaction:
ba(oh)2(aq) + hno3(aq) →
o ba(no3)2(aq) + h2o(l)
o no reaction occurs
o ba(s) + h2(g) + no2(g)
o bao(s) + no2(g) + h2o(l)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the reaction type

This is an acid - base reaction. \(Ba(OH)_2\) is a base (\(OH^-\) donor) and \(HNO_3\) is an acid (\(H^+\) donor).

Step2: Predict the products

In an acid - base reaction (neutralization), the products are a salt and water. The salt is formed by the combination of the cation from the base (\(Ba^{2 + }\)) and the anion from the acid (\(NO_3^-\)). The formula of the salt is \(Ba(NO_3)_2\), and water (\(H_2O\)) is also formed.

Answer:

\(Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)+H_2O(l)\)
