HELP

Post by premedstudent »

I was trying to balance the chemical equation of Copper (II) sulfate and Sodium hydroxide and Disodium edetate (represent as Na2-EDTA) but then it said there were some errors


This is my equation: Cu(OH)₂+Na2SO4+C10H14CaN2Na2O8=C10H12CuN2Na2O8+OH


This is for a chelating agent

Sodium is exchanged by copper nothing else. The hydroxide is only to keep alcaline pH.
Na2EDTA + Cu 2+ => CuEDTA + 2 Na+
