Answer:

Explanation:

According to the reaction equation shown, if the amount of the reactants is halved, the amount of H2O(l) produced in the reaction will be halved.

The molecular reaction equation was given as follows; HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq)→ NaCl(aq) + H2O(l). Ionically, we can write; H^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq) + Na^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) ----> Na^+(aq) + + Cl^-(aq) + H2O(l). The net ionic equation now becomes; H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) ----> H2O(l).

This implies that the concentration of H2O(l) depends on the concentrations of H^+(aq) and OH^-(aq) from HCl(aq) and NaOH(aq) respectively and the mole ratio of reactants and products is 1:1:1:1.

Hence, of the amount of the reactants is halved, the amount of H2O(l) produced in the reaction will be halved.
