When writing the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride: Na+ + e– ? Na(l). Why is Na shown as (l) in the half-equation?
In the equation for a neutralisation producing a salt in solution (e.g., HCl + NaOH ? NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)), which state symbol tells you the salt is dissolved and can conduct electricity?
In the oven test for a precipitate, a chemist might write AgCl(s). What does AgCl(s) indicate?
