A physical change involves a change in physical properties. Examples of physical properties include melting, transition to a gas, change of strength, change of durability, changes to crystal form, textural change, shape, size, color, volume and density.
An accepted and universally true explanation of observed facts is a law.
Answer:
2KHCO3+ H3PO4 arrow K2HPO4 + 2 H20 + 2C02
Explanation:
2KHCO3+ H3PO4 arrow K2HPO4 + 2 H20 + 2C02
Start with the Ks. Don't start on the right. Just balance the Ks on the left. The reason is that the CO3 is going to break down as well.
2KHCO3+ H3PO4 arrow K2HPO4 + H20 + C02
Leave the PO4 alone. Now look at the Hs that are on the right. There are 5 on the left. Leave the K2HPO4 alone. If you put a 2 in front of tthe H2O then you have a total of 5 Hs on the right.
2KHCO3+ H3PO4 arrow K2HPO4 + 2H20 + C02
There are 2 carbons on the left. You need 2 on the right.
2KHCO3+ H3PO4 arrow K2HPO4 + 2H20 + 2C02
That should do it.
Let's make a table to show balance.
Species K H C PO4- O
Left 2 5 2 1 6 from CO3^(2-)
Right 2 5 2 1 6 from H2O/CO2
A physical property is any property that is measurable whose value describes a state of a physical system.A chemical property is any of a material's properties that becomes evident during, or after, a chemical reaction; that is, any quality that can be established only by changing a substance's chemical identity.Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, although all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom.The periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number (number of protons), electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. A period is the name given to a horizontal row of the periodic table.a group is a column of elements in the periodic table of the chemical elements.
