the problem is one of the products bcuz (SO4)-2 ion and Fe(3+)ions when react they make Fe2(SO4)3 not Fe(SO4)3 ; after criss-crossing the charges.. so your final reaction would beeee...

2 Fe(OH)3 + 3 H2SO4 = Fe2(SO4)3 + 6 H2O

hope that helps..

Yes you are right. So in your case, you start balancing with carbon C which in the right side would be 2CO2 and den you have 6 hydrogens on the left side so you put 3 on the right side so it wud become 3H2O now count oxygen on the right side, it is 2CO2 + 3H2O so total of 7 oxygens. Now the problem ...

Lets start with general case, There is an element with some atomic mass and atomic number. So now, this atomic number is the first thing you are going to look at. Because the atomic number is going to tell you how many electrons and protons are there in 1 atom of element. You have 3 cases, Case 1: N...

Hey yeah part of the equation is correct you require Na2SO4 not NaSO4 and secondly you are writing H20 (*you are using zero not O for oxygen) it is H2O
2 NaOH + H2SO4 = Na2SO4 + 2 H2O

Heat absorbed is equal to = Mass x specific capacity of the substance x temperature change Therefore ur answer would be= 420 x 4.2 (for water) x 43= 75852 joules or 75.852 KJ You should note that even though specific heat caapcity of water is in terms of Kelvin but we didnt not change the temperatur...

I dont know the problem in first one
2nd- Al2(SO4)3 + 3 Ca(OH)2 = 2 Al(OH)3 + 3 CaSO4
(you were forgeting the () around hydroxide OH

3rd- Al2(SO4)3 + 6 NaHCO3 = 2 Al(OH)3 + 3 Na2SO4 + 6 CO2
again same problem

4th- Mg3N2 + 6 H2O = 3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 NH3
once agian same problem lol

3 Mg(OH)2 + 2 (NH4)3PO4 = Mg3(PO4)2 + 6 NH3 + 6 H2O
there you go the only reason why you cudnt balance it was that you were not putting brackets () around OH in MgOH2 ..

In order to answer that question you have to know the state of copper as copper has two states (I) and (II) , if copper is in (I) your answer would be Cu2S oor if in (II) it would be CuS BUt in case you are not given with anything assume its (I) and your answer would be Cu2S.. since thats more commo...
