If aqueous solutions of Ba(OH)₂ and HNO₃ are mixed, what products are formed? A) BaN₂(s) + H₂O(l) B) Ba(NO₃)₂(aq) + H₂O(l) C) Ba(s) + H₂(g) + NO₂(g) D) Ba₂O(s) + NO₂(g) + H₂O(l) E) Ba₃N₂(s) + H₂O(l)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When aqueous solutions of Ba(OH)₂ and HNO₃ are mixed, a double displacement reaction occurs. The OH- ion from Ba(OH)₂ reacts with the H+ ion from HNO₃ to form water (H2O) while the Ba2+ ion from Ba(OH)₂ reacts with the NO3- ion from HNO₃ to form Ba(NO₃)₂. Therefore, the correct product is Ba(NO₃)₂(aq) + H₂O(l).
