![### QUESTION 14
**Problem Statement:**
Write a full balanced equation for the chemical reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of potassium sulfide is mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium acetate. Give the state of each reactant and product (s, l, g, aq).
**Explanation:**
1. **Reactants:**
- Potassium Sulfide (K2S) - aqueous (aq)
- Sodium Acetate (CH3COONa) - aqueous (aq)
2. **Products and their states to be determined and balanced:**
### Detailed Solution:
When potassium sulfide (K2S) is mixed with sodium acetate (CH3COONa) in aqueous solutions, a double displacement reaction occurs, forming potassium acetate (CH3COOK) and sodium sulfide (Na2S).
**Balanced Equation:**
\[ K_2S_{(aq)} + 2CH_3COONa_{(aq)} \rightarrow 2CH_3COOK_{(aq)} + Na_2S_{(aq)} \]
**States of Reactants and Products:**
- Potassium sulfide \((K_2S)\): aqueous \((aq)\)
- Sodium acetate \((CH_3COONa)\): aqueous \((aq)\)
- Potassium acetate \((CH_3COOK)\): aqueous \((aq)\)
- Sodium sulfide \((Na_2S)\): aqueous \((aq)\)
