Chapter 6, Problem 60AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The following chemical reaction should be balanced:

${\text{LiAlH}}_{\text{4}}(s)+{\text{AlCl}}_{\text{3}}(s)\to {\text{AlH}}_{\text{3}}(s)+ \text{LiCl}(s)$.

Concept Introduction:

Balancing a chemical equation is important to make the equation follow the conservation mass of law. The atoms in the chemical reaction from the reactant side is equal to the atoms in the product side.
