Use the chemical reaction to answer the question. NaHCO3+HC2H3O2→NaC2H3O2+H2O+CO2
A student mixes baking soda (NaHCO3) and acetic acid (HC2H3O2) to produce a chemical reaction shown. Which statement about the reaction is correct?

(10 point)

The atoms of the reactants are regrouped during the reaction.

Some atoms gain mass after the reaction.

There are more H atoms after the reaction.

Atoms of Na are destroyed during the reaction.

the correct answer is b. a strong acid completely dissociates to its ions when dissolved in water. completely dissociates to and ions. a is incorrect because does not fully ionize to and ions and some remain as the compound . c and d are incorrect because, and do not fall into the category of bronsted lowry acids. a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor and since both molecules do not have a proton to donate they are not bronsted lowry acids. likewise,   if we use the lewis acid definition, they cannot be acids. a lewis acid is an electron pair acceptor. both and have a complete octet so can not accept any electrons which disqualifies them as acids.
