Answer to Question #191539 in General Chemistry for jack harvey

Question

Give the complete ionic equation for the reaction (if any) that occurs when aqueous                        solutions of H2SO4 and KOH are mixed.

 

           A) H+(aq) + OH-(aq) → H2O(l)

           B) 2 K+(aq) + SO42-(aq)  → K2SO4(s)

           C) 2 H+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) + 2 K+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → 2 H2O(l) + 2 K+(aq) + SO42-(aq)

           D) 2 H+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) + 2 K+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → 2 H+(aq) + 2 OH-(aq) + K2SO4(s)

           E) No reaction occurs.

 

Answer 1

$A) H^+_{(aq)} + OH^-_{(aq)} → H2O_{(l)}$
