Chapter 11, Problem 66E

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between calcium and water is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

A chemical reaction is a process in which rearrangement of atom or ions takes place between two reacting species. A balanced chemical equation represents an equation in which all the reactants and products are written with their stoichiometric coefficients and physical states. The number of atoms of an element on both sides of the equation is equal.
