During a class demonstration, a model volcano “erupts” when the teacher adds vinegar to baking soda inside the volcano. Vinegar contains acetic acid, and baking soda is sodium hydrogen carbonate. When they are combined, a reaction occurs and bubbles form. Which gas is in the bubbles, and why do the bubbles form? A. Oxygen gas forms because an acid reacts with a metal. B. Carbon dioxide gas forms because an acid reacts with a metal. C. Oxygen gas forms because an acid reacts with carbonate ions. D. Carbon dioxide gas forms because an acid reacts with carbonate ions.

Answer the questions about this reaction: nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions: oxidation half-reaction: reduction half-reaction: based on the table of relative strengths of oxidizing and reducing agents (b-18), would these reactants form these products? write the balanced equation: answer options: a. 0/na -> +1/na+1e- b. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) c. +1/na+1e- -> 0 /na d. -1/2i -> 0/i2+2e- e. no f. 4nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + i2(g) g. 2nai(aq) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(aq) + i2(g) h. 4nai(aq) + 2cl2(g) → 4nacl(aq) + 2i2(g) i. nai(aq) + cl2(g) → nacl(aq) + i2(g) j. 0/cl2+2e -> -1/2cl- k. yes
