Question

Complete and balance the equation for the double replacement reaction LiOH(aq)+Fe(NO3)3(aq)

Answer 1

Fe(NO₃)₃(aq) + 3LiOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3LiNO₃(aq)

Step-by-step explanation:

• The equation between LiOH and Fe(NO₃)₃ is given by;

Fe(NO₃)₃(aq) + LiOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + LiNO₃(aq)

• This is an example of a double displacement reaction.

• A double displacement reaction is a type of reaction in which two compounds reacts by exchanging cations or anions to form new compounds.
• To balance an equation we put appropriate coefficients on reactants and products for the atoms of each element to be equal.
• Therefore, the complete balanced equation for the reaction is given by;

Fe(NO₃)₃(aq) + 3LiOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3LiNO₃(aq)
