Question 14Follow these steps to write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between acetic acid and sodiumhydroxide.0/1 pt10 Deta1. Start by writing the proper names of the products below (separated by a + sign).Acetic acid + Sodium hydroxide →2. Next, write the full, balanced molecular equation with the correct chemical formulas, includingcoefficients.3. Finally, write the net ionic equation for this reaction below, including ionic charges.

Respuesta :

In this question, we need to write the complete and balanced equation between acetic acid and sodium hydroxide, this reaction must also be written in the net ionic equation at the end:

1. Regarding only with the name of the reactants and products:

Acetic acid + Sodium hydroxide --> Sodium acetate + water

2. Now we balance the equation with the chemical formulas:

CH3COOH + NaOH --> NaCH3COO + H2O

3. Now we write the net ionic equation for this reaction:

To do that, we need to write the physical state of each compound and also to split the strong electrolytes into ions, forming the complete ionic equation

CH3COOH (aq) + Na^+ (aq) + OH^- (aq) ---> Na^+ (aq) + CH3COO^- (aq) + H2O (l)

The net ionic equation must have the ions that have a direct change either in its charge or physical state, and in our reaction, CH3COOH and OH had a change in their charge, therefore the net ionic equation will be:

CH3COOH + OH- --> CH3COO- + H2O
