Predict the products for the following set of reactants. K₂O(s) + H₂O(l) $\rightarrow$ 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

There is no indication that any of the reactants will form a gas, so options C, D, and E can be eliminated. Additionally, option A has too many products and includes a gas that is not provided as a reactant. Option B only includes the ions present in the reactants and is the simplest and most likely product.
