Concept introduction:
A chemical reaction is a process in which the rearrangement of atoms 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 coefficient and physical states. The number of the atoms of an element on both sides of the equation is equal.

(a) the reaction of sodium hydroxide and iron(II) chloride to give iron(II) hydroxide and sodium chloride (b) the reaction of barium chloride with sodium carbonate to give barium carbonate and sodium chloride (c) the reaction of ammonia with phosphoric acidarrow_forwardThe carbon dioxide exhaled in the breath of astronauts is often removed from the spacecraft by reaction with lithium hydroxide 2LiOH(s)+CO2(g)Li2CO3(s)+H2O(l) Estimate the grams of lithium hydroxide required per astronaut per day. Assume that each astronaut requires 2.50 103 kcal of energy per day. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 2.50 103 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of CO2 produced and hence the amount of LiOH required. The H for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forward
