Question #cb6d7
1 Answer
No, it will not occur, since both products (NaOH and KCl) are soluble.
Explanation:
This reaction looks like a possible double replacement reaction.
So the likely equation for your reaction is
NaCl(aq) + KOH(aq) → NaOH(?) + KCl(?)
To decide if a precipitate forms, we have to review the "Solubility Rules." The important one for this question is:
- All compounds of Group 1 elements are soluble.
According to this rule, both NaOH and KCl are soluble.
There will be no reaction, and no precipitate will form.
