A key step in balancing chemical equations is correctly identifying the formulas of the reactants and products. For example, consider the reaction between calcium oxide, CaO(s), and \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)\) to form aqueous calcium hydroxide.
(a) Write a balanced chemical equation for this combination reaction, having correctly identified the product as \(\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_{2}(a q)\).
(b) Is it possible to balance the equation if you incorrectly identify the product as CaOH(aq), and if so, what is the equation?
Text Transcription:
{H}_{2}{O}(l)
{Ca}({OH})_{2}(a q)
