Answer:
2 AgNO3 + Na2SO4 → Ag2SO4 + 2 NaNO3
Explanation:
The general schemefor a reaction is given as;
Reactants --> Products
In this question, the reactants are AgNO3 and Na2SO4. The product is Ag2SO4.
The equation is given as;
AgNO3 + Na2SO4 --> Ag2SO4
The other poduct formed in this reaction is NaNO3.
The full reaction is given as;
AgNO3 + Na2SO4 --> Ag2SO4 + NaNO3
The above reaction is not balanced because there are unequal number of atoms of the elements on both sides of the reaction.
The balanced equation is given as;
2 AgNO3 + Na2SO4 → Ag2SO4 + 2 NaNO3
In this equation, there are equal number of moles of the atoms on both sides.
The answer is D. A compound
The basic building block of matter is the atom.
