Chapter 8, Problem 8.17PP

a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The balanced equation for the hydration of ${\text{CaCl}}_{\text{2}}$ with water.

Introduction:

The chemical reaction in which a compound combines with water is called hydration reaction.

A balanced chemical equation is based on the law of conservation of mass. According to this law, the mass of the products formed in a chemical reaction is equal to the mass of the reactants in the reaction.

b.
