write chemical equation of acitic acid reacts with calcium hydroxide
Answers
Answer:
Acetic acid is Ethanoic Acid, C2H4O2. It is a weak acid. When in water, it partially disassociates to form H+ and C2H3O2- ions. Calcium oxide is CaO. In water, it reacts to form calcium Hydroxide by the following reaction (This assumes the reaction occurs in an aqueous environment):
CaO+2H2O → Ca(OH)2 + H2.
When this reacts with Ethanoic acid, it reacts to form calcium ethanoate (also known as acetate), by the following neutralization reaction:
Ca(OH)2 + 2C2H4O2 → Ca(C2H3O2)2 + 2H2O .
The total reaction is so:
CaO + 2C2H4O2 → Ca(C2H3O2)2
The above reaction is what would occur in an non-aqueous environment.
When Calcium Carbonate, CaCO3, reacts with ethanoic acid, it neutralizes to form calcium ethanoate, water and carbon dioxide gas.
CaCO3 +2C2H4O2 → Ca(C2H3O2)2 + CO2 + H2O
Explanation:
Explanation:
The formula for calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)2 . Balanced word equation: Two moles of ethanoic acid (acetic acid) react with one mole of calcium hydroxide to produce one mole of calcium acetate and two moles of water.
