Write the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when equal volumes of 0.062 M aqueous formic acid and sodium benzoate are mixed. It is not necessary to include states such as (aq) or (s). Use HCOO- as the formula for the formate ion.

The net ionic equation when formic acid and sodium benzoate are mixed is as follows.

Explanation:

A chemical equation in which both reactants and products are present in the form of ions is called an ionic equation.

The chemical formula of formic acid is HCOOH and chemical formula of sodium benzoate is .

Therefore, net ionic equation when formic acid and sodium benzoate are mixed is as follows.

Fisrt we must know the molar mass of the HCl. the molar mass of HCl is 36.46 g / mol. first is to convert the given mass of hcl to number of moles then divide it by the molarity to get the volume required.

volume HCl = 3.4 g hcl ( 1 mol hcl / 36.46 g hcl) (1 L / 0.5 mol hcl )
volume HCl = 0.1865 L
