Answer:
2H⁺(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
Explanation:
You aren't dumb. You just need more time to learn the concepts.
There are three steps you must follow. You must write the:
- Molecular equation
- Ionic equation
- Net ionic equation
1. Molecular equation
2HBr + Sr(OH)₂ ⟶ SrBr₂ + 2H₂O
To predict the states of the substances, we must remember some solubility rules:
- HBr is a strong acid. It dissociates completely in water.
- Most hydroxides are only slightly soluble. Unless the solution is quite dilute, I would write their states in water as "(s)", i.e., a suspension of the solid in water.
- Salts containing Br⁻ are generally soluble.
Acids and bases react to give salts and water.
Thus, the molecular equation is
2HBr(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ SrBr₂(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
B. Ionic equation
You write all the soluble substances as ions.
2H⁺(aq)+ 2Br⁻(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
C. Net ionic equation
To get the net ionic equation, you cancel the ions that appear on each side of the ionic equation.
2H⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
The net ionic equation is
2H⁺(aq) + Sr(OH)₂(s) ⟶ Sr²⁺(aq) + 2H₂O(ℓ)
