Balance the equations (NH2)2CO3 on a bunsen burner and FeCl3+KSCN

OpenStudy (aaronq):

1. write the equations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq those are the equations, they are two different ones

OpenStudy (aaronq):

those are formulas (identity of the compound) you wanna write A+B->C+D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq right, like splitting apart and balancing...I need help with that

OpenStudy (aaronq):

(NH2)2CO3 on a bunsen burner, what does that suggest?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

FeCl3+KSCN -> double displacement

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq the (NH2)2CO3 was put in a test tube and set over the fire and decomposed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq balanced what would FeCl3+KSCN look like?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

so what would it decompose to?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

for the other you have to write products, then balance both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it made like a gas with water @aaronq

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm having a hard time balancing :/ @aaronq and matching charges

OpenStudy (aaronq):

what was this "like gas and water"? formulas, you need actual compounds (formulas)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

il do one FeCl3+KSCN -> KCl +

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its KCl+SCNFe @aaronq ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@aaronq like a steam

OpenStudy (aaronq):

in the first compound Fe was 3+ (because 3 Cl's and Cl is 1-) SCN is -1 soo what would it be

OpenStudy (aaronq):

lol you need to find what you made from the first decomposition reaction

OpenStudy (aaronq):

you can't balance (NH2)2CO3 -> like steam + water

OpenStudy (anonymous):

KCl+3SCNFe ? @aaronq so would I add H2O to the second equation?
