Answer: It does not change the chemical composition of water.

Explanation:

A physical reaction is defined as the reaction in which a change in shape, size takes place. No new substance gets formed in these reactions.

There is no change in chemical composition.

Example : melting of ice

H_2O(s)\rightarrow H_2O(l)

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions by breaking of old and making of new bonds.

Example: Oxidation of magnesium leads to formation of white magnesium oxide and is a chemical change.

2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO

Nai(aq)+hg2(no3)2(aq)→ express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in your answer. enter noreaction i
Komok [63]
<span>Balanced chemial equation:

2NaI(aq)+Hg2(NO3)2(aq) →Hg2 I2 (s) + 2 NaNO3 (aq)

You can see it better if I use latex:

2NaI(aq)+Hg_2(NO_3)_2(aq) =Hg_2 I_2 (s) + 2 NaNO_3 (aq)

As per the phases this is the interpretation:

The symbols (aq) stands for aquous meaning that the compound is dissolved in water.

The symbol (s) stands for solid, meaning tha the compound precipitate and is not dissolved in water.</span><span>
