Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The correct formula, balanced equation and the type of reaction needs to be provided for the reaction between bismuth (III) oxide and carbon to produce bismuth metal and carbon monoxide.
Concept Introduction:
Chemical reactions can broadly be classified into 5 types based on how the reactants interact to form products, these include: combination reaction, decomposition reaction, single replacement, double replacement and combustion reaction.- A chemical reaction is said to be balanced if there are equal number of atoms of one kind in the reactants and products
(b)
Interpretation:
The correct formula, balanced equation and the type of reaction needs to be provided for the decomposition of sodium bicarbonate to form sodium carbonate, carbon dioxide and water.
