(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given equation has to be written complete and balanced

Concept Introduction:

Balancing the equation:

  • There is a Law for conversion of mass in a chemical reaction i.e., the mass of total amount of the product should be equal to the total mass of the reactants.
  • The concept of writing a balanced chemical reaction is depends on conversion of reactants into products.
  • First write the reaction from the given information.
  • Then count the number of atoms of each element in reactants as well as products.
  • Finally obtained values could place it as coefficients of reactants as well as products.
  • Loss of electron and loss of Hydrogen in a compound is oxidation - the compound is oxidized.  Gain of electron, gain of Oxygen in a compound is reduction - the compound is reduced.
  • Oxidation reduction and reduction reaction occur simultaneously in same reaction.

To Write: The given equation complete and balanced.

Answer to Problem 21.116QP

The complete and balanced equation for the given equation is:

3Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2Al(s) 3Pb(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)

Explanation of Solution

Given Equation:

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + Al(s)

Complete Equation:

A complete equation will have same elements present on both sides of the equation.

The above equation can be completed by writing as follows,

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + Al(s) Pb(s) + Al(NO3)3(aq)

Balancing the equation:

A balanced equation will have same elements and same number of atoms of each side of the reaction.

List the atoms of the equation in a table and check for the equal number of atoms present on either side of the reaction.

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + Al(s) Pb(s) + Al(NO3)3(aq)

Reactant side Atom Product side
1 Al 1
2 (NO3) 3
1 Pb 1

To balance the above equation, multiply Pb(NO3)2 and Pb by three and Al(s) and Al(NO3)3 by two

3Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2Al(s) 3Pb(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)

Again, list the atoms of the equation in a table and check for the equal number of atoms present on either side of the reaction.

Reactant side Atom Product side
2 Al 2
6 (NO3) 6
3 Pb 3

The number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same. Therefore, the above equation is a balanced one.

Hence, the complete and balanced form of the given equation is written as:

  3Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2Al(s) 3Pb(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)

Conclusion

The complete and balanced equation of the given equation is written as:

3Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2Al(s) 3Pb(s) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq)
