hydrogen selenide can be prepaired by reacting aluminium selinide with water the other product being solid aluminium hydoxide AL(OH)3,write a balanced chemical equasion for the reaction of aluminium selenide with water including the phisical states of the reactents can u help
STart with the balanced equation. I am uncertain of what difficulty you are having.
im just not sure it might be easy for some but im having a bit trouble
No problem, I can help you out! Let's start by writing out the balanced chemical equation for the reaction of aluminum selenide with water.
The chemical formula for aluminum selenide is Al2Se3, and water is H2O.
The balanced equation would be:
Al2Se3 + 3H2O → 2H2Se + 2Al(OH)3
In this reaction, aluminum selenide reacts with water to produce hydrogen selenide (H2Se) and solid aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3).
Please note that this equation is balanced according to the stoichiometry of the reaction.
I hope this helps! Do let me know if you have any further questions.
