The products : Zn₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + KClO₃ (aq)
Further explanation
Given
reaction: Zn(ClO₃)₂ (aq) + K₃PO₄ (aq)
Required
The products
Solution
Double-Replacement reactions : an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product
General formula :
AB + CD ⇒ AD + CB
One of the characteristics of the double replacement reaction is the presence of precipitated compounds
Zn(ClO₃)₂ (aq) + K₃PO₄ (aq) ⇒ Zn₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + KClO₃ (aq)
Zn₃(PO₄)₂ (s)⇒ precipitated compounds, so that this reaction can occur
