Let say Pb(NO3)2 combine with FeCl3, would this yield PbCl + Fe(NO2)3? Thanks
Close. Solutions would yield
PbCl2(s) + Fe(NO3)3(aq)
Oh. Typo sorry. So CuSO4 + NAOH would be Cu(OH)2 + NA2SO4? Thanks
I'll buy Na2SO4 but not NA2SO4.
To determine the products of a chemical reaction, we need to balance the equation and consider the charges of the ions involved.
First, let's write the chemical equation and balance it:
Pb(NO3)2 + FeCl3 → PbCl2 + Fe(NO3)3
Now, let's break down the reactants and products into their respective ions:
Pb2+ + 2NO3- + Fe3+ + 3Cl- → Pb2+ + 2Cl- + Fe3+ + 3NO3-
The equation doesn't show any actual chemical change, as the Pb2+ and Fe3+ ions remain separate. Therefore, the correct equation is:
Pb(NO3)2 + FeCl3 → PbCl2 + Fe(NO3)3
So, the reaction between Pb(NO3)2 and FeCl3 would yield PbCl2 (lead(II) chloride) and Fe(NO3)3 (iron(III) nitrate), not PbCl (lead(I) chloride) and Fe(NO2)3.
It is important to balance the equation and consider the charges of the ions involved to determine the correct products of a chemical reaction.
