2 - Calcium Nitrate - Ca(NO_3)_2

The requirements for a correctly written chemical equation are -

  • Identifying reactants and products
  • Formula of reactants and products
  • Valency of elements

Example of word equation, formula equation, and chemical equation is as follows -

Aluminium + iron9(III)oxide ⇒ aluminium oxide + iron (word equation)

Al_(_s_)  + Fe_2O_3_(_s_)    ⇒   Al_2O_3_(_s_)  + Fe_(s) (formula equation)              

2Al_(_s_) + Fe_2O_3_(_s_)    ⇒   Al_2O_3_(_s_)   + 2Fe_(_s_) (chemical equation)
