Question

PLEASE I NEED HELP ASAP, I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION AND STEPS.

60 POINTS
Create a balanced reaction for the double displacement reaction between Sodium Phosphate Na3(PO4) and Copper Sulfate Cu(SO4).
You will have to balance the ion ratios of the products as well as the over-all reaction for full points.

• Ionic compounds correct: 1 point
• Ionic compounds balanced internally: 1 point
• Reaction balanced: 2 points
• Correct formatting (superscript and subscript, for example): 1 point

Answer 1

I think its Na3(PO4)+Cu(SO4) --> Na2(SO4) + Cu3(2PO4).

hope it helps ;P

Answer 2

In a double displacement reaction, the cations and anions of two compounds exchange their places resulting in the formation of new compounds.

The given reactants are sodium phosphate (
`Na_(3)PO_(4)`) and copper (II) sulfate(
`CuSO_(4)`). Sodium phosphate and copper sulfate react to form sodium sulfate and copper phosphate.

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sodium phosphate and copper sulfate can be represented:

`2Na_(3)PO_(4)(aq)+3CuSO_(4)(aq)-->Cu_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)(s)+3Na_(2)SO_(4)(aq)`

The product formed copper phosphate is insoluble solid and the other product sodium sulfate is soluble.
