Chapter 14, Problem 14.110CHP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The balanced net ionic equation for reaction of ${\text{NaHCO}}_{\text{3}}$ and $\text{NaAl}{\left({\text{SO}}_{\text{4}}\right)}_{\text{2}}·{\text{12H}}_{\text{2}}\text{O}$ with water to gives ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}$ gas should be written.

Concept Introduction:

• There is a law for conversion of mass in a chemical reaction i.e., the mass of total amount of the product should be equal to the total mass of the reactants.
• The concept of writing a balanced chemical reaction is depends on conversion of reactants into products.
• First write the reaction from the given information.
• Then count the number of atoms of each element in reactants as well as products.
• Finally obtained values could place it as coefficients of reactants as well as products.
