Question

Zinc + lead(IV) chloride  makes what

Answer 1

Answer:

2Zn + PbCl4 → 2ZnCl2 + Pb

N.B: ZnCl2 is zinc chloride

Pb is lead

Explanation:

Zinc has a chemical symbol Zn while lead(IV) chloride has the chemical formula, PbCl4. Combining these two substances in a reaction will give rise to the following:

Zn + PbCl4 → ZnCl2 + Pb

However, this equation is not balanced. To balance the equation, we make sure that the atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction are equal. This is done as follows;

2Zn + PbCl4 → 2ZnCl2 + Pb

N.B: ZnCl2 is zinc chloride

Pb is lead
