Question

Blance equation __CaBr2 (aq) + ___Li3PO4(aq) → ___Ca3(PO4)2(s) + ____LiBr (aq)

Answer 1

3CaBr2 + 2LI3PO4 - > Ca3(PO4) 2 + 6LiBr

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one I did was PO4. There are two on the right side, so I added 2 to Li3PO4 on the other side. That balanced the PO4s and then gave me 6 Lithiums so I balanced that one next on the right side. I added 6 to LiBr which balanced the Li but then gave me 6 Br, so I finished it off by adding 3 in front of CaBr2 which balanced the calcium and bromines.

Here was the process:

CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+LiBr

Balances PO4 (2on both sides)

CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+6LiBr

Balances Lithiums (6 on each side)

3CaBr2+2Li3PO4 -> Ca3(PO4)2+6LiBr

Balances Calciums and Bromines (3 Calciums and 6 Bromines each side)

Hope this helped!
