1) List the reactants: sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) and citric acid (H₃C₆H₅O₇).
Reactants undergo change during a chemical reaction.
2) List the products: water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂) and sodium citrate (Na₃C₆H₅O₇).
Products are the substances formed from chemical reactions.
3) The balanced chemical equation:
3NaHCO₃ + H₃C₆H₅O₇ → 3H₂O + 3CO₂ + Na₃C₆H₅O₇.
Explanation:
forward reaction
a reaction in which reactent react to form product is known as forward reaction
reverse reaction
a reaction in which product react to form reactent is known as reverse reaction
At equilibrium stage
In a chemical equilibrium, the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates, and the concentrations of products and reactants remain constant. A catalyst speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction, but has no effect upon the equilibrium position for that reaction.
changing amount of reactent and product
lechatlier principle
" if you impose any change in concentration ( reactant or product) , temperature or pressure on chemical system, the system response in that way that opposes the change "
Hi my dear friend,
The atoms, ions, or molecules that make up the solid or liquid are very close together. There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. ... Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.
~Thank you
