I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The stair-step line between the pink squares and the yellow squares separates the metals <span>from the nonmetals. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
The reaction of HCl and NaOH is HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O. So the mole number of HCl and NaOH is equal. So the volume of HCl =0.01*0.1/0.02=0.05 L =50 ml. So the answer is D).
<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written below.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The chemical formula of carbonic acid is
. It is a diprotic weak acid which means that it will release two hydrogen ions when dissolved in water
The chemical equation for the first dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

The expression of first equilibrium constant equation follows:
![Ka_1=\frac{[H^+][HCO_3^{-}]}{[H_2CO_3]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ka_1%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BHCO_3%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BH_2CO_3%5D%7D)
The chemical equation for the second dissociation of carbonic acid follows:

The expression of second equilibrium constant equation follows:
![Ka_2=\frac{[H^+][CO_3^{2-}]}{[HCO_3^-]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ka_2%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BH%5E%2B%5D%5BCO_3%5E%7B2-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BHCO_3%5E-%5D%7D)
Hence, the chemical equations and equilibrium constant expression for each ionization steps is written above.
D has a total of four significant figures.
