Ionic bonds result from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, which form when valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another.
The question is not complete. Proposed completed question is:
When aqueous solutions of sodium chloride and silver nitrate are mixed, a double-displacement reaction occurs. What is the balanced equation for the reaction?
A.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) --------NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(aq)
B.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) -------- NaNO3(aq) + 3AgCl(s)
C.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) --------- NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(s)
D.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) --------- Na(s) + AgNO3Cl(aq)
E.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) --------- NaNO3(aq) + ClAg(s)
Answer is
A.
NaCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) --------NaNO3(aq) + AgCl(aq)
Explanation:
Following the law of conservation of energy, the total number of atoms in the reactant side is equal to the total number of atoms in the product side.
Answer:
There are three methods used to produce salt: solar, evaporation and rock mining.
Explanation:
The reaction is a synthesis…
… because <em>two substances are combining to make one other substance</em>.
It is also a <em>reduction-oxidation reaction</em> because the <em>oxidation number of Al increases</em> from 0 to +3 and the <em>oxidation number of O</em> decreases from 0 to -2.
