Question

Write the products of the following acid-base reaction. You should include all products.

CH3NH3+ Cl-    + NaOH ====>

If the reaction is a Brønsted acid-base reaction, draw the products in separate sketchers. Separate multiple products using the + sign from the dropdown menu. If the reaction is a Lewis acid-base reaction, draw the products in a single sketcher, with a single bond connecting the Lewis base and Lewis acid.

Note: Sodium and potassium never form covalent bonds to electronegative atoms.

Explanation / Answer

CH3NH3+ Cl- + NaOH <--------> CH3NH3+ OH- + NaCl

This is a bronsted acid base reaction, cause in this case, you are only changing the counter ion, instead of Cl, it will be OH, cause it is more stable. When Chlorium goes out, the atom of sodium forms an ionic bond with it and form the NaCl.

Hope this helps
