Answer:

FeCl₃  +  <u>3</u>NaOH  →  Fe(OH)₃  +  <u>3</u>NaCl​

Explanation:

You are given a skeleton equation, or unbalanced equation.

FeCl₃  +  NaOH  →  Fe(OH)₃  +  NaCl​

<u>Count the number of atoms on each side</u>. If there is 1 atom, the subscript is not written. If the subscript to the right of a bracket, it belongs to each element in the bracket.

Reactants     →       Products

Fe  1                        Fe  1

Cl   3                       Cl   1         Not balanced

Na  1                        Na  1

O   1                         O   3        Not balanced

H   1                         H   3        Not balanced

<u>The number of each element must be the same in the reactants and products.</u> We can see that Cl (chlorine), O (oxygen) and H (hydrogen) have different numbers.

<u>Write in coefficients in front of formulas</u> (separated by + sign). Coefficients multiply each subscript (or "1" if not written) in the formula. <u>Recount the atoms until you have equal reactant and product atom numbers.</u>

I see that I need more chlorine in my products. Multiply the formula that has "Cl" by 3.

FeCl₃  +  NaOH  →  Fe(OH)₃  +  3NaCl​

Reactants     →       Products

Fe  1                        Fe  1

Cl   3                       Cl   3          Cl is balanced now.

Na  1                        Na  3         Not balanced

O   1                         O   3         Not balanced

H   1                         H   3         Not balanced

Fix the "Na" now. Multiply the formula with "Na" on the left by 3.

FeCl₃  +  3NaOH  →  Fe(OH)₃  +  3NaCl​

Reactants     →       Products

Fe  1                        Fe  1

Cl   3                       Cl   3

Na  3                       Na  3

O   3                        O   3

H   3                        H   3

Each side has the same number of each element. Therefore, this is balanced now.

Balanced formula:

FeCl₃  +  <u>3</u>NaOH  →  Fe(OH)₃  +  <u>3</u>NaCl​

Write a balanced equation for the reaction of Na₂S and CdSO₄. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the ph
Luba_88 [7]

Explanation:

A chemical reaction equation that contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is known as a balanced chemical reaction equation.

For example, Na_{2}S(aq) + CdSO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow Na_{2}SO_{4}(aq) + CdS(s)

Here, number of reactant molecules are as follows.

Na = 2

S = 2

Cd = 1

O = 4

Number of product molecules are as follows.

Na = 2

S = 2

Cd = 1

O = 4

As there are already equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side. Hence, the reaction equation is balanced.

Also, in this reaction both Na_{2}S and CdSO_{4} are present as aqueous solution. And, CdS is the precipitate that is formed as it is the insoluble solid that forms.

Na_{2}SO_{4} is present in aqueous state.

Why does the rate of a reaction increase when the concentration of reactants is increased?
leva [86]

If reactants eventually collide, there is an occurrence of reaction.

<span> 
Therefore, when there is an increase concentration of reactant, meaning to say that there are several moles of it every unit volume. An example of this is a room having hundred of people will absolutely get higher concentration compared to a room with one individual only. 

Pertaining to effective collisions, if ever there is an increase of concentration, the frequency and rate of effective collisions among reactants surges in such a way that the rate of reaction also surges. Same with passing into a room with only 1 individual compared to hundred people blind persons, you probably want to proceed to the room with several people.</span>

<span>This is the simple logic behind that scientific existence.</span>
