Question

Predict the products for the reactions and balance the equations

Answer 1

$\bold{\huge{\blue{\underline{ Answer }}}}$

Given :-

• We have given equation Cacl2 + K2CO3

Let's Begin

We have ,

$\sf{ CaCl2 + K2CO3 \:gives \:CaCO3 + KCl }$

Let's balance it

On reactant side,

• $\sf{Calcium (Ca) = 1}$
• $\sf{Chlorine ( Cl = 2 }$
• $\sf{Potassium (K) = 2}$
• $\sf{Carbonate (CO3) = 1}$

On product side,

• $\sf{Calcium (Ca) = 1}$
• $\sf{Chlorine ( Cl = 1 }$
• $\sf{Potassium (K) = 1}$
• $\sf{Carbonate (CO3) = 1}$

Therefore, Balanced equation will be :-

$\sf{ CaCl2 + K2CO3 \:gives\: CaCO3 + 2KCl }$

• The above reaction is Double displacement reaction.

Double Displacement reaction :-

• Double displacement reaction is a reaction in which the ions of compound on a reactant side exchanges due to the varying reactivity of elements so that they can form new products.
