If they didn't, they wouldn't be able to communicate their findings effectively. An international language is especially important for elements because many elements have similar properties (e.g. some of the transition metals).
Answer:
Double replacement
Precipitation reaction
Explanation:
You have the reaction:
REACTANTS PRODUCTS
BaCl₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) ⇒ 2NaCl (aq) + BaSO₄(s)
The general form of a double replacement reaction is the following:
AB + CD ⇒ CD + AB
The reactants basically, exchanged partners. In the case of your problem, Barium(Ba) and Sodium(Na) switched places. So this makes it a double-replacement reaction.
Now how do I know it is a precipitation reaction. A precipitation reaction occurs when two solutions combine and salt is formed. Salt is solid, so how do I know that's what occured? Look at your equation again:
BaCl₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) ⇒ 2NaCl (aq) + BaSO₄(s)
aq means aqueous (liquid)
s means solid
If you look at the product formed in the reaction, from two solutions, it formed a solid. So this is your clue as to why it is a precipitation reaction.
Hi there, I believe that nitrogen turns into a liquid at 20 degrees Celsius.
Thererore, the nitrogen state is liquid.
20 protons it takes for the answer
