(Steps: skeleton equation/count number of atoms in reactants and products/balance both sides)
Q24. Aqueous lithium iodide and aqueous silver nitrate react to produce solid sikrer iodide and
1 aqueous lithium nitrate.
A24.
I need the balanced chemical equation for this question


Sagot :

The balanced equation :

LiI(aq) + AgNO₃(aq) --> AgI(s) + LiNO₃(aq)

Further explanation

Given

Word equation

Required

Balanced equation

Solution

There are 3 ways to express a chemical equation:

  • word equation
  • skeleton equation
  • balanced equation

Skeleton equation for reaction above :

LiI(aq) + AgNO₃(aq) ⇒ AgI(s) + LiNO₃(aq)

If we look at this reaction, all the cations and anions have a charge of 1 (+1 or -1) so the balanced reaction between the skeleton equation and the balanced equation is the same
