Aand b are powders, a is insoluble while b dissolves to give a ph 3 solution. mixing a and b gives bubbles or effervescence and a clear solution.
a) which is the acid?
b) if the other substance is a carbonate, name the gas given off.
c) even though a is insoluble a clear solution is given off, explain why.

I think it is a nitric acid

a) B is an acid

b)carbon dioxide

c) it is salt of the acid

Explanation:

a)  B dissolves to produce an acid. An acid, according to the Bronsted-Lowry theory, dissolves in an solution to give an acid solution of a pH less than 7 on a pH scale.

b) carbonates gives a gaseous effervescence. The gas given off is carbon dioxide

c) The solution is a salt of an acid. This is in an aqueous solution.

the equation that correctly represent the reaction for formation of ammonia is

n2+ 3h2 → 2nh3 (answer d)

1 mole of nitrogen gas (n2) react with 3 moles of hydrogen gas (h2) to form 2 moles of ammonia ( nh3). this is in a process known as haber process were iron is used as a catalyst and reaction take place that a higher temperature and pressure. the process is exothermic hence energy is released.
