Question

What is the balanced equation for conversion of soluble salt of zinc to insoluble salt of that metal

Answer 1

Explanation:

(a) Acids are defined as compounds which contain one or more hydrogen atoms, and when dissolved in water, they produce hydronium ions (H3O+), the only positively charged ions.

(b) Hydronium ion

(c) H3O+

H2SO4 + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + HSO4-

HSO4- + H2O ⇌ H3O+ + SO4-2

If water is added to a concentrated acid, the heat generated causes the mixture to splash out and cause severe burns. Thus, water is never added to acid in order to dilute it.
