- Many over-the-counter antacid tablets are now formulated using calcium carbonate as die active ingredient, which enables such tablets to also be used as dietary calcium supplements. As an antacid for gastric hyperacidity, calcium carbonate reacts by combining with hydrochloric acid found in the stomach, producing a solution of calcium chloride, converting die stomach acid to water, and releasing carbon dioxide gas (which the person suffering from stomach problems may feel as a burp). Write die balanced chemical equation for this process.arrow_forwardhat kind of visual evidence indicates that a chemical reaction has occurred? Give an example of each type of evidence you have mentioned. Do all reactions produce visual evidence that they have taken place?arrow_forwardIn each of the following cases, does a precipitation reaction occur when solutions of the two water-soluble reactants are mixed? Give the formula of any precipitate that forms, and write a balanced chemical equation for the precipitation reactions that occur. (a) sodium carbonate and copper(11) chloride (b) potassium carbonate and sodium nitrate (c) nickel(11) chloride and potassium hydroxidearrow_forward
- Assume you have a highly magnified view of a solution of HCl that allows you to see the HCl. Draw this magnified view. If you dropped in a piece of magnesium, the magnesium would disappear and hydrogen gas would be released. Represent this change using symbols for the elements, and write out the balanced equation.arrow_forward3.14 A number of compounds are used in cement, and reactions among them occur when water is added. In one, CaO reacts with Al2O3 and water to form Ca3Al2(OH)12. Write a bal- anced chemical equation for this process.arrow_forwardWrite an equation from the following description: reactants are gaseous NH3 and O2, products are gaseous NO2 and liquid H2O, and the stoichiometric coefficients are 4, 7, 4, and 6, respectively.arrow_forward
- 4-25 In the chemical test for arsenic, the gas arsme, AsH3, is prepared. When arsine is decomposed by heating, arsenic metal deposits as a mirror-like coating on the surface of a glass container and hydrogen gas, H2, is given off. Write a balanced equation for the decomposition of arsine.arrow_forwardlist at least three quantities that must be conserved in chemical reactions.arrow_forwardIf aqueous solutions of potassium carbonate and copper(II) nitrate are mixed, a precipitate is formed. Write the complete and net ionic equations for this reaction, and name the precipitate.arrow_forward
- It is stated in Section 6.3 of the text that to balance equations by inspection you start “with the most complicated molecule.” What does this mean? Why is it best to do this?arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between a solute and a solvent?arrow_forwardWrite a balanced equation for the reaction of hydroiodic acid, HI, with calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2. Then, write the balanced complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for this neutralization reaction.arrow_forward
