Complete, Balance and classify the chemical reaction....please help do not understand
A)Li(s)+AuCL3(aq)->
B)AL(NO3)(aq)+K2CO3(ag)->
C)Ba(s)+F2(g)->
D)SnCI2(aq)+Na3PO4(aq)->
E)Na+AICI3(s)->
A is a single replacement. You need to know examples of single replacement, synthesis, decomposition, double replacement. Also, you need to know the solubility rules and activity series.
Li(s) + AuCl3(aq) ==> LiCl(s) + Au(s)
I will leave it for you to balance.
Sure, I'd be happy to help you complete, balance, and classify these chemical reactions. To do this, we'll need to follow a few steps.
Step 1: Identify the reactants and products
First, we need to identify the reactants and products in each chemical equation.
A) In the equation Li(s) + AuCl3(aq), the reactants are Li (lithium metal) and AuCl3 (gold chloride). We need to figure out the products.
B) In the equation Al(NO3)3(aq) + K2CO3(aq), the reactants are Al(NO3)3 (aluminum nitrate) and K2CO3 (potassium carbonate). We need to determine the products.
C) In the equation Ba(s) + F2(g), the reactants are Ba (barium metal) and F2 (fluorine gas). We need to determine the products.
D) In the equation SnCl2(aq) + Na3PO4(aq), the reactants are SnCl2 (tin(II) chloride) and Na3PO4 (sodium phosphate). We need to determine the products.
E) In the equation Na + AlCl3(s), the reactants are Na (sodium metal) and AlCl3 (aluminum chloride). We need to determine the products.
Step 2: Write the balanced chemical equations
Next, we'll balance the chemical equations by making sure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. This step requires knowledge of chemical formulas and how to balance equations.
A) Li(s) + AuCl3(aq) → LiCl(aq) + Au(s)
B) 2Al(NO3)3(aq) + 3K2CO3(aq) → Al2(CO3)3(s) + 6KNO3(aq)
C) Ba(s) + F2(g) → BaF2(s)
D) SnCl2(aq) + 3Na3PO4(aq) → Sn3(PO4)2(s) + 6NaCl(aq)
E) 3Na(s) + AlCl3(s) → 3NaCl(aq) + Al(s)
Step 3: Classify the reactions
Now, we'll classify each reaction based on its type.
A) This is a single replacement reaction because lithium (Li) has replaced gold (Au) in the compound.
B) This is a double replacement reaction because the cations (Al3+ and K+) and anions (NO3- and CO3-2) of the reactants have swapped places to form new compounds.
C) This is a synthesis reaction because barium (Ba) and fluorine (F2) have combined to form a compound.
D) This is a double replacement reaction because the cations (Sn2+ and Na+) and anions (Cl- and PO4-3) of the reactants have swapped places to form new compounds.
E) This is a single replacement reaction because sodium (Na) has replaced aluminum (Al) in the compound.
