Predict the products for the following set of reactants. K₂O(s) + H₂O(l) → A) K⁺(aq) + OH^-(aq) + H²(g) B) K⁺(aq) + OH^-(aq) C) K⁺(aq) + H₂(g) + O₂(g) D) KH(s) + O₂(g) E) K⁺(aq) + OH^-(aq) + H₂O₂(aq)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The reactants are a solid oxide (K₂O) and a liquid acid (H₂O). When these two react, they will undergo an acid-base reaction to form a salt (K⁺) and water (OH^-). Therefore, the best choice for the products is option B.
