Potassium bicarbonate (KHCO3) and hydrobromic acid (HBr) will react to form potassium bromide (KBr), water (H2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2). Here's the balanced equation:

KHCO3 + HBr --> KBr + H2O + CO2

(A closer look actually tells you that the other product besides potassium bromide is carbonic acid, H2CO3; but under normal conditions, that quickly decomposes into water and carbon dioxide, so the above equation actually reflects two different reactions: one double replacement and one decomposition.)

Write the expression for Ka for the dissociation of HBr?

Ka = [H+].[Br-] / [HBr] However the value of this expression is very high, because HBr is a STRONG acid, meaning that much more than 99.9% of the HBr molecules in water are protolized (ionized), making [H+] and [Br-] equal to the original (added) HBr amount, and the [HBr]-value nearly zero.

What was done in the experiment to ensure that all KHCO3 was react?

In the experiment, excess HCl was added to the solution containing KHCO3. This ensured that all of the KHCO3 would react completely, as any unreacted KHCO3 would still be neutralized by the excess HCl.


How many moles are in 186 grams of HBr?

For this you need the atomic (molecular) mass of HBr. Take the number of grams and divide it by the atomic mass. Multiply by one mole for units to cancel. HBr= 81.0 grams186 grams HBr / (81.0 grams) =2.30 moles HBr


Why is the mass of KCL recovered less the starting mass of KHCO3?

The mass of KCl recovered is less than the starting mass of KHCO3 because during the chemical reaction between KHCO3 and HCl to form KCl, CO2 gas is evolved. Some of the starting mass of KHCO3 is lost as gas during the reaction, leading to a lower mass of the end product (KCl) compared to the original mass of KHCO3.
