How do you complete and balance a chemical equation and know what kind of reaction (dbl disp, singl disp, comb., etc.?)
for instance,

SO2 + H2O -->
SO3 + H2O -->
Ca+ H2O -->
Bi(NO3)3 + H2S -->

SO3 + H2O -->
Ca+ H2O -->
Bi(NO3)3 + H2S -->

Code: Select all

SO2 + H2O --> H2SO3
SO3 + H2O --> H2SO4
Ca+  2 H2O --> Ca(OH)2 + H2
Bi(NO3)3 + H2S --> BiS + 2 HNO3
Hope this helps!
