Net Ionic Reactions – Practice #4 - KEY
1. (i) NH4Br + OH- --> NH3 + Br- + H2O (You didn't write the solutions as ion and cross out spectators.)
Remember that NH4OH becomes NH3 + H2O.
1. (ii) The litmus paper will turn blue because ammonia gas is produced.
2. (i) Sodium phosphate crystals are solid, so don't write them as ions (even though they would dissolve when given the
opportunity.
Na3PO4 (s) + 3H2O -->3NaOH + H3PO4 – ok
Na3PO4 (s) + 3 H2O -->3 Na+ + 3 OH- + H3PO4 - ok
Na3PO4 + H2O --> 3 Na+ + OH- + HPO42- [or H2PO4-]
2. (ii) --the Na3PO4 (or the PO43- alone) is accepting a proton from water and is
thus a base
3. (i) NaCN + H2O --> Na+ + HCN + OH3. (ii) H2O and OH- or HCN and CN4. (i) HCl + CN- --> HCN + Cl4. (ii) --the CN- is accepting a proton from water and is thus a base
5. (i) 2 Ca + O2 --> 2 CaO
5. (ii) basic, since CaO is the anhydride of a strong base, Ca(OH)2
6. (i) Br2 + 2 I- --> I2 + 2 Br6. (ii) bromine (Br2) is the oxidizing agent, accepting electrons from the iodide ions
7. (i) 2 C3H7OH + 9 O2 --> 6 CO2 + 8 H2O
7. (ii) an alcohol
8. (i) 3 Zn2+ + 2 PO43- --> Zn3(PO4)2
8. (ii) since sodium ions are spectators, they will be found in the solution and color
the flame bright yellow
Do NOT submit the directions and questions to the dropbox, only the answers!
For each of the following reactions, write a balanced equation for the reaction in
part (i) and answer the question about the reaction in part (ii). In part (i),
coefficients should be in terms of lowest whole numbers.
Assume that solutions are aqueous unless otherwise indicated. Represent
substances in solutions as ions if the substances are extensively ionized. Omit
formulas for any ions or molecules that are unchanged by the reaction.
FYI, here is how each question is scored:
1 point is earned for the correct reactants.
2 points are earned for the correct products.
1 point is earned for correctly balancing the equation for both mass and charge.
1 point is earned for the correct answer or observation for part ii.

Questions:
1. (i) Aqueous potassium hydroxide is added to crystals of ammonium bromide.
(ii) When moistened litmus paper is held over the reaction container, what
change will be observed?
NH4Br + OH- --> NH3 + Br- + H2O
--the litmus paper will turn blue because ammonia gas is produced
2. (i) Sodium phosphate crystals are added to water.
(ii) Which reactant acts as a Brønsted base? Explain.
Na3PO4 (s) + 3H2O  3NaOH + H3PO4 – ok
Na3PO4 (s) + 3 H2O  3 Na+ + 3 OH- + H3PO4 - ok
Na3PO4 + H2O --> 3 Na+ + OH- + HPO42- [or H2PO4-]
--the Na3PO4 (or the PO43- alone) is accepting a proton from water and is thus
a base
3. (i) Solid sodium cyanide is added to water.
(ii) Give a conjugate acid-base pair in your reaction.
NaCN + H2O --> Na+ + HCN + OH(ii) --H2O and OH- or HCN and CN4. (i) Hydrogen chloride gas is bubbled through a solution of potassium
cyanide.
(ii) Which species behaves as a Brønsted base?
HCl(g) + KCN HCN + KCl
HCl + CN- --> HCN + Cl--the CN- is accepting a proton from water and is thus a base
5. (i) Calcium metal is heated strongly in the presence of oxygen .
(ii) If the product is added to water is the resulting mixture acidic or basic?
2 Ca + O2 --> 2 CaO
basic, since CaO is the anhydride of a strong base, Ca(OH)2
6. (i) Liquid bromine is added to a solution of potassium iodide.
(ii) Which substance is the oxidizing agent?
Br2 + 2 I- --> I2 + 2 Brbromine (Br2) is the oxidizing agent, accepting electrons from the iodide ions
7. (i) Propanol is burned completely in air..
(ii) What kind of organic compound is propanol?
CH3-CH2-CH2-OH = C3H7OH
2 C3H7OH + 9 O2 --> 6 CO2 + 8 H2O
an alcohol
8. (i) Solutions of zinc sulfate and sodium phosphate are mixed.
(ii) If a wire loop is dipped into the final reaction mixture and placed in a
flame, what color will the flame turn?
3 Zn2+ + 2 PO43- --> Zn3(PO4)2
since sodium ions are spectators, they will be found in the solution and color
the flame bright yellow
