02

Possible Answers:

-x, -x, +x

+x, +2x, +x

-x, -2x, +x

+x, +x, +x

 +x, +4x, -x

Correct answer:

-x, -2x, +x

Explanation:

Based on the balanced equation, one would use -x, -2x, and +x.

Example Question #81 : Reaction Types

Put the following acids in order of their INCREASING acid strength:  HI, HCl, HBr, HF.

Possible Answers:

HCl, HBr, HI, HF

HI, HBr, HCl, HF

HF, HCl, HBr, HI

HI, HCl, HBr, HF

HF, HBR, HI, HCl

Correct answer:

HF, HCl, HBr, HI

Explanation:

Larger halogen size leads to greater acidity because of weaker H-X interactions.

Example Question #82 : Reaction Types

Put the following acids in order of their INCREASING acid strength:  HCl, HS, HBr, H2Se.

Possible Answers:

H2S, HCl, HBr, H2Se

H2Se, HBr, HS, HCl

HBr, H2Se, HCl, H2S

H2S, H2Se, HCl, HBr

HCl, HS, HBr, H2Se

Correct answer:

H2S, H2Se, HCl, HBr

Explanation:

Acid strength increases from left to right across a period and increases going down a group.

Example Question #83 : Reaction Types

Put the following acids in order of their DECREASING acid strength:  HOCl, HOBr, HOI, H2O.

Possible Answers:

HOI, HOBr, HOCl, H2O

H2O, HOCl, HOBr, HOI

H2O, HOI, HOBr, HOCl

HOCl, H2O, HOBr, HOI

HOCl, HOBr, HOI, H2O

Correct answer:

HOCl, HOBr, HOI, H2O

Explanation:

Acid strength of an oxy acid increases with increasing electronegativity on the halogen.
