Question

Practice: Balance each of the chemical equations below. (Some equations may already be in balance.) In the space to the right, classify the reaction as a synthesis, decomposition, single replacement, or double replacement reaction. A. AgNO3 + KCl ???? AgCl + KNO3 B. H2O + SO3 ???? H2SO4 C. KI + Cl2 ???? KCl + I2 D. NaHCO3 ???? Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2 E. Zn + HCl ???? ZnCl2 + H2 F. BaCl2 + Na2SO4 ???? BaSO4 + NaCl G. C3H8 + O2 ???? CO2 + H2O H. Al + CuCl2 ???? AlCl3 + Cu

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A. AgNO3 + KCl --> AgCl + KNO3

Reaction is already balanced.

Type = Double Replacement

B. H2O + SO3 --> H2SO4

Reaction is already balanced.

Type = Synthesis

C. KI + Cl2 --> KCl + I2

Balanced Equation = 2KI + Cl2 --> 2KCl + I2

Type = Single Replacement

D. NaHCO3 --> Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Balanced Equation = 2NaHCO3 --> Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Type = Decomposition

E. Zn + HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2

Balanced Equation = Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2

Type = Single Replacement

F. BaCl2 + Na2SO4 --> BaSO4 + NaCl

Balanced Equation = BaCl2 + Na2SO4 → 2NaCl + BaSO4

Type = Double Replacement

G. C3H8 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O

Balanced Equation = C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O

Type = Single Replacement

H. Al + CuCl2 --> AlCl3 + Cu

Balanced Equation = 2Al + 3CuCl2 → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

Type = Single Replacement
