8. If additional calcium phosphate is added to the above reaction mixture, what will happen to the overall reaction? |
(a) |
There will be no change in the overall reaction. |
(b) |
The reaction will occur at a faster rate. |
(c) |
Less of the reactants will react in order to compensate for the increase in the amount of one of the products of the reaction. |

More of the reactants will have to react in order to compensate for the increase in the amount of one of the products of the reaction. |
9. In a single replacement reaction, why will one metal replace another metal in an ionic compound? |
(a) |
The metal will replace another metal if it has a smaller mass and thus is able to hit the ionic compound with a higher velocity and thus more energy. |
(b) |
The metal will replace another metal if it has a larger mass and thus is able to hit the ionic compound with more energy. |
(c) |
The metal will replace another metal if it can gain electrons more readily than the other metal. |
(d) |
The metal will replace another metal if it can lose electrons more readily than the other metal. |
10. When two ionic compounds are dissolved in water, a double replacement reaction can… |
(a) |
never occur since all ions in water are “spectator ions”. |
(b) |
occur if two of the ions form an insoluble ionic compound, which precipitates out of solution. |
(c) |
occur if the ions react to form a gas, which bubbles out of the solution. |
(d) |
occur only if the ions form covalent bonds with each other. |
11. The pH of a 1 molar solution of a weak acid with a Ka = 10-10 will be… |
(a) |

(b) |
5 |
(c) |

7 |
(d) |
12 |
13. Which Br?nsted acid (H2O or H2S (aq)) is the stronger acid and why is it the stronger acid? |
(a) |
H2O is the stronger acid because oxygen has a greater electronegativity than sulfur, which gives the attached hydrogen atom more proton character. |
(b) |
H2O is the stronger acid because H2S is a gas and gases are not acids. |
(c) |
H2S is the stronger acid because the hydrogen-sulfur bond is much weaker than the hydrogen-oxygen bond due to a greater difference in atomic orbital energy levels. |
(d) |
H2S is the stronger acid because it is a heavier molecule and therefore has more energetic collisions. |
14. Which Br?nsted acid (HCl (aq) or H2S (aq)) is the stronger acid and why is it the stronger acid? |
(a) |
HCl is the stronger acid because it is a better proton donor. |
(b) |
HCl is the stronger acid because the hydrogen-chlorine bond is much weaker than the hydrogen-sulfur bond due to a greater difference in atomic orbital energy levels. |
(c) |
HCl is the stronger acid because chlorine has a greater electronegativity than sulfur, which gives the attached hydrogen atom more proton character. |
(d) |
H2S is twice as strong an acid as HCl because it has two acidic hydrogen atoms versus only one hydrogen atom in HCl. |
15. What is the oxidation number of nitrogen in the molecule N2? |

25. Potassium bromate, KBrO3, is an additive to some flour (brominated flour) used to improve texture in the dough. It is a suspected carcinogen and some consumer groups want to ban this additive. The industry says that this compound is decomposed to KBr and O2 when the bread is baked and is thus not a risk to the health of the consumer…hmmm. When this reaction is balanced, the sum of the coefficients for the KBrO3 and KBr and O2 will be…
Can you think of an easy experiment to test the response made by industry?…answer (d).
