Convert the following word equations into formula equations: 1) hydrogen + oxygen -> water 2) copper + tin(IV) sulfite -> copper(I) sulfite + tin 3) potassium + water -> potassium... Convert the following word equations into formula equations: 1) hydrogen + oxygen -> water 2) copper + tin(IV) sulfite -> copper(I) sulfite + tin 3) potassium + water -> potassium hydroxide + hydrogen 4) iron(III) oxide + potassium -> potassium oxide + iron
Understand the Problem
The question asks to convert word equations into chemical formula equations. This involves representing the chemical compounds with their respective formulas, balancing the number of atoms on both sides of the equation to ensure mass conservation. Each individual word problem will require a separate line in the solution.
Answer
1) H2 + O2 -> H2O 2) Cu + Sn(SO3)2 -> Cu2SO3 + Sn 3) K + H2O -> KOH + H2 4) Fe2O3 + K -> K2O + Fe
- H2 + O2 -> H2O
- Cu + Sn(SO3)2 -> Cu2SO3 + Sn
- K + H2O -> KOH + H2
- Fe2O3 + K -> K2O + Fe
Answer for screen readers
- H2 + O2 -> H2O
- Cu + Sn(SO3)2 -> Cu2SO3 + Sn
- K + H2O -> KOH + H2
- Fe2O3 + K -> K2O + Fe
More Information
A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and formulae, wherein the reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities on the right-hand side.
Tips
Make sure you know your Roman numerals, for example Iron(III) implies that there are 3 Iron molecules.
