The following are two reaction schemes involving magnesium. Scheme I: When magnesium burns in oxygen, a white solid (A) is formed. A dissolves in 1 M HCl to give a colorless solution (B). Upon addition of Na2CO3 to B, a white precipitate is formed (C). On heating, C decomposes to D and a colorless gas is generated (E). When E is passed through limewater [an aqueous suspension of Ca(OH)2], a white precipitate appears (F). Scheme II: Magnesium reacts with 1 M H2SO4 to produce a colorless solution (G). Treating G with an excess of NaOH produces a white precipitate (H). H dissolves m 1 M HNO3 to form a colorless solution. When the solution is slowly evaporated, a white solid (I) appears. On heating I, a brown gas is given off. Identify A–I, and write equations representing the reactions involved.
Interpretation:
The equations representing A-I involved reactions has to be written.
Concept introduction:
- To write a chemical reaction from the given information we must understand which is going to react and which is going to form as product in a particular chemical reaction.
- First write down the reactants in left side and analyze carefully the possibility of product obtained and this has to be placed in right side of a reaction.
- We can represent a reaction by writing reactants in left side and products in the right side.
