Concept explainers
a)
Interpretation :
Chemical equation must be written and balanced when gaseous chlorine reacts with aqueous solution of potassium bromide to produce liquid bromine and aqueous solution of potassium chloride.
Concept Introduction :
Chlorine can displace bro mine from its salt is reactivity of chlorine is more than that of bromine.
a)
Answer to Problem 1RQ
Unbalanced and balanced chemical equations are given below.
Explanation of Solution
From the reaction it can be seen that to balance the 2 Cl atoms 2 moles of KCl is required in product side. Then to balance 2 K atoms in product side 2 moles of KBr is required in reactant side. Number of Cl, K and Br atoms are equal in both the sides of the balanced equation.
b)
Interpretation :
Chemical equation must be written and balanced when solid aluminium reacts with solid iodine to produce solid aluminium iodide.
Concept Introduction :
Aluminium is an electropositive metal which can combine with iodine to produce corresponding iodide compound.
b)
Answer to Problem 1RQ
Unbalanced and balanced chemical equations are given below.
Explanation of Solution
From the reaction it can be seen that to balance the 2 Al atoms 2 moles of AlI3 is required in product side. Then to balance 6 I atoms in product side 3 moles of I2 is required in reactant side. Number of Al and I are equal in both the sides of the balanced equation.
