The Hall process is an important method by which pure aluminum is prepared from its oxide (alumina, Al2O3 ) by indirect reaction with graphite (carbon). Balance the following equation, which is a simplified representation of this process. m:math>Al2O3(s)+C(s)Al(s)+CO2(g)
Iron oxide ores, commonly a mixture of FeO and Fe2O3 , are given the general formula Fe2O3 . They yield elemental iron when heated to a very high temperature with either carbon monoxide or elemental hydrogen. Balance the following equations for these processes. m:math>Fe2O4(s)+H2(g)Fe(s)+H2O(g)Fe2O4(s)+CO(g)Fe(s)+CO2(g)
Chlorine gas was first prepared in 1774 by C. W. Scheele by oxidizing sodium chloride with manganese(IV) oxide. The reaction is NaCl(aq)+H2SO4(aq)+MnO2(s)Na2SO4(aq)+MnCl2(aq)+H2O(l)+Cl2(g) Balance this equation.
The same net ionic process takes place when any strong acid reacts with any strong base. Write the equation for that process.
The Solvay process is multistep industrial method for the manufacture of sodium carbonate, Na2CO3, which is also known as washing soda. Although most of the industrialized world utilizes the Solvay process for production of sodium carbonate, it is not manufactured in the United States because it can be obtained at lower cost from a large natural deposit in Wyoming. Questions 19 through 22 are based on reactions in that process. Sodium carbonate is used for many purposes, including glass manufacturing. How much NaCl is needed to react completely with 83.0g of ammonium hydrogen carbonate in NaCl+NH4HCO3NaHCO3+NH4Cl?
A common demonstration in chemistry courses involves adding a tiny speck of manganese(IV) oxide to a concentrated hydrogen peroxide, H2O2 , solution. Hydrogen peroxide is unstable, and it decomposes quite spectacularly under these conditions to produce oxygen gas and steam (water vapor). Manganese(IV) oxide is a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and is not consumed in the reaction. Write the balanced equation for the decomposition reaction of hydrogen peroxide.
When heated to 700—800 C, diamonds, which are pure carbon, are oxidized by atmospheric oxygen. (They burn!) Write the balanced equation for this reaction.
Complete and balance the equations for the following acid-base neutralization reactions. If water is used as a solvent, write the reactants and products as aqueous ions. In some cases, there may be more than one correct answer, depending on the amounts of reactants used. (a) Mg(OH)2(s)+HCl4(aq) (b) SO3(g)+H2O(l) (assume an excess of water and that the product dissolves) (c) SrO(s)+H2SO4(l)
Methanol (methyl alcohol), CH3OH , is a very important industrial chemical. Formerly, methanol was prepared by heating wood to high temperatures in the absence of air. The complex compounds present in wood are degraded by this process into a charcoal residue and a volatile portion that is rich in methanol. Today, methanol is instead synthesized from carbon monoxide and elemental hydrogen. Write the balanced chemical equation for this latter process.

Beryllium was first isolated as a relatively pure metal when investigators heated solid beryllium chloride with solid potassium. a.) Predict the products of this reaction in a balanced equation; also indicate what type of reaction this is. b.) Beryllium chloride, is still used in the production of beryllium. However, it can cause lung cancer if small particles of the compound are inhaled, it can also damage skin with repeated contact. Another danger of working with this compound is that it reacts with the water in air to produce hydrochloric acid, which is highly corrosive. Suggest at least three safety precautions that would be needed in the industrial storage and use of this substance.
