Question

Complete the following steps.

Remember to follow lower numbered rules first.
K2S(aq) + CO(NO3)2(aq) COS (?) + KNO3 (?)
a. Write a balanced chemical equation. (1 pt)
b. If a reaction occurs, write the balanced
chemical equation with the proper states of matter
(i.e. solid, liquid, aqueous) filled in. If no reaction
occurs, write “No reaction.” (1 pt)
c. If a reaction occurs, write the net ionic equatibn
for the reaction. If no reaction occurs, write “no
reaction.” (1 pt)

Answer 1

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The balanced reaction equation is;

K2S + CO(NO3)2 ------> COS + 2 KNO3

b) When we include the states of matter, we have;

K2S(aq) + CO(NO3)2(aq) ----> COS(s) + 2 KNO3(aq)

c) The complete ionic equation is;

2K^+(aq) + S^2-(aq) + Co^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) ----> CoS(s) + 2K^+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq)

Net ionic equation;

Co^2+(aq) + S^2-(aq) ----> CoS(s)
