Question

Shown below is a chemical reaction. Fe + CuCl2 mc009-1.jpg FeCl2 + Cu Which pair of substances are the products?

Answer 1

FeCL2 and Cu.

Just took the test.

Answer 2

Answer: The products are
`FeCl_2` and
`Cu`

Step-by-step explanation: The chemical reaction is written in terms of chemical formulas by writing the reactants on the left hand side and the products on the right hand side separated by an arrow.

This is an example of single displacement reaction where a more reactive element displaces a lesser reactive element from its salt solution.

`Fe+CuCl_2\rightarrow FeCl_2+Cu`

Thus the reactants are iron
`(Fe)` and Copper chloride
`(CuCl_2)` and the products are iron chloride
`(FeCl_2)` and copper
`Cu`.
