Question

Indicate the number corresponding to each coefficient required to write the balanced equation for the reaction:

aHNO3 + bMg(OH)2 es001-1.jpg cH2O + dMg(NO3)2

Answer 1

a 2

b 1

c 2

d 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The number of corresponding to each coefficient required to write the balanced equation for the reaction is as below


2 HNO3 + Mg(OH)2 = 2H2O + Mg(NO3)2
the coefficient is therefore
a=2
b=1
c=2
d=1

2 moles of HNO3 reacted with 1 mole of Mg(OH)2 to form 2 moles of H2O and 1 mole of Mg(NO3)2
