Which one of the following is the molecular equation for the reaction of hydrobromic acid with potassium hydroxide? All species are in aqueous solution. A)H⁺ Br ^- K⁺ OH^- KBr H₂O B)H⁺ Br ^- K⁺ OH^- K⁺ Br ^- H₂O C)HBr KOH KBr H₂O D)K⁺ Br^- KBr E)H⁺ OH^- H₂O

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecular equation is the balanced chemical equation for the reaction in which the reactants and products are written as undissociated molecules. The balanced molecular equation for the reaction of hydrobromic acid with potassium hydroxide is:

HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) → KBr(aq) + H2O(l)

Option C is the only choice that represents the correct balanced molecular equation for the reaction. Option A, B, D, and E do not represent the balanced molecular equation for the given reaction.
