Homework 14.2

For each of the following reactions, write the chemical equation (be sure that your chemical formulas are correct), balance the equation, write the ionic equation (indicating if a precipitate forms by checking table 14-1), and, if appropriate, the net ionic equation:

a) solution of magnesium acetate and solution of strontium chloride are combined

Mg(CH3COO)2(aq) + SrCl2(aq) ---> Sr(CH3COO)2(aq) + MgCl2(aq)

Mg+2(aq) + 2 CH3COO-1(aq) + Sr+2(aq) + 2Cl-1(aq) ----> Sr+2(aq) + 2CH3COO-1(aq) + Mg+2(aq) + 2Cl-1(aq)

b) solution of mercury (II) chloride and a solution of potassium sulfide are combined

HgCl
2(aq) + K2S(aq) ----> HgS(s) + KCl(aq)

Hg+2(aq) +2Cl-1(aq) + 2K+1(aq) + S-2(aq) ----> HgS(s) + K+1(aq) + Cl-1(aq)

Hg+2(aq) + S-2(aq) ----> HgS(s)


c) solution of sodium carbonate and a solution of calcium chloride are combined

Na
2CO3(aq) + CaCl2(aq) ----> NaCl(aq) + CaCO3(s)

2Na+1(aq) + CO3-2(aq) + Ca+2(aq) + 2Cl-1(aq) ----> Na+1(aq) + Cl-1(aq) + CaCO3(s)

CO3-2(aq) + Ca+2(aq) ----> CaCO3(s)

d) a solution of copper (II) chloride and a solution of ammonium phosphate are combined

3 CuCl
2(aq) + 2 (NH4)3PO4(aq) ---> 6 NH4Cl(aq) + Cu3(PO4)2(s)

3 Cu+2(aq) + 2 Cl-1(aq) 6 NH4+1(aq) + 2 PO4-3(aq) ----> 6 NH4+1(aq) + 6 Cl-1(aq) + Cu3(PO4)2(s)

3 Cu+2(aq) + 2 PO4-3(aq) ---->Cu3(PO4)2(s)

e) a solution of copper (II) chloride and a solution of lead (II) nitrate are combined

CuCl2(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) ----> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + PbCl2(s)

Cu+2(aq) + 2 Cl-1(aq) + Pb+2(aq) + 2 NO3-1(aq)
----> Cu+2(aq) + 2 NO3-1(aq) + PbCl2(s)

Pb+2(aq) + 2 Cl-1(aq) ----> PbCl2(s)
