Question

Potassium sulfate and strontium acetate Express your answer as a chemical equation

Answer 1

Answer: $K_2SO_4(aq)+Sr(CH_3COO)_2(aq)\rightarrow SrSO_4(s)+2CH_3COOK(aq)$

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.  

A double displacement reaction in which one of the product is formed as a solid is called as precipitation reaction.  

The balanced chemical equation is:

$K_2SO_4(aq)+Sr(CH_3COO)_2(aq)\rightarrow SrSO_4(s)+2CH_3COOK(aq)$
