Elemental copper would be a pure substance.
It is a compound composed of sodium (Na) and chloride (Cl)
Answer:
Na(s) + C(s, graphite) + 1/2 H₂(g) + 3/2 O₂(g) → NaHCO₃(s)
Explanation:
The standard formation reaction is the synthesis of 1 mole of a substance from its elements in their most stables forms under standard conditions. The balanced chemical equation is:
Na(s) + C(s, graphite) + 1/2 H₂(g) + 3/2 O₂(g) → NaHCO₃(s)
