Question
Using the activity series (Table 4.5), write balanced chemical equations for the following reactions. If no reaction occurs, write NR. (a) Iron metal is added to a solution of copper(II) nitrate, (b) zinc metal is added to a solution of magnesium sulfate, (c) hydrobromic acid is added to tin metal, (d) hydrogen gas is bubbled through an aqueous solution of nickel(II) chloride, (e) aluminum metal is added to a solution of cobalt(II) sulfate.
Solution
The first step in solving 4 problem number 56 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Using the activity series (Table 4.5), write balanced chemical equations for the following reactions. If no reaction occurs, write NR. (a) Iron metal is added to a solution of copper(II) nitrate, (b) zinc metal is added to a solution of magnesium sulfate, (c) hydrobromic acid is added to tin metal, (d) hydrogen gas is bubbled through an aqueous solution of nickel(II) chloride, (e) aluminum metal is added to a solution of cobalt(II) sulfate.
From the textbook chapter Reactions in Aqueous Solution you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
