Dissolution means to make the compound apart, So when we have ionic compounds like NaI which has metal and non-metal ions, It separates into parts of positive ions and negative ions. After we separate this compound apart we will put the charge of each on above its symbol and then start to balance the equation of the dissolution.
So the dissolution equation of NaI is:
NaI(s) → Na^+(s) + I^-(Aqu)
Answer:
4Ba(CO3) -> 4BaO2 + 2CO2
Explanation:
I looked at the oxygens to balance this. Ba(CO3) normally has 3 oxygens. BaO2 and CO2 have 4 oxygens total. The common multiple of 3 & 4 is 12. So there should be 12 oxygens on both sides. Then I just found the coefficients that would give 12 oxygens on both sides and can balance the rest of the atoms.
Random or ionic bond pattern
In chemistry the need for standards when measuring quantities are in place for accurate measurement that is recognized world wide. This way, no matter what language people use, they will always understand there standards.
