A key step in balancing chemical equations is correctly

Chapter , Problem 3.10

(choose chapter or problem)

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 H2O1l2 to form aqueous calcium hydroxide. (a) Write a balanced chemical equation for this combination reaction, having correctly identified the product as Ca1OH221aq2. (b) Is it possible to balance the equation if you incorrectly identify the product as CaOH1aq2, and if so, what is the equation?
