Question

Write out the balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when Fe(OH)3 and H2S react together.

Answer 1

i got this 2Fe(OH)3 + 3H2S -> Fe2S3 + 6H2O but i don't think that's right

Answer 2

My initial thought is this
H2S + Fe(OH)3 = Fe2S3 + H2O

Answer 3

And so to balance....
3 H2S + 2 Fe(OH)3 = Fe2S3 + 6 H2O

Answer 4

so i was right? hm. what a rare occurrence

Answer 5

Wonderful feeling is it not?

Answer 6

are you sure that's right? i just wanna make sure

Answer 7

I feel fairly confident. I believe the first set that I have is correct, and so I believe I balanced that correctly.

Answer 8

ok, thank you so much :]

Answer 9

No problemo! Been about a semester and a half since I've used my chem too :D

Answer 10

could you tell me if i got this other one right too?

Answer 11

I can do my best!

Answer 12

Write out the balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when Ca and Al(NO3)3 react together.

and i put 3Ca + 2Al(NO3)3 -> 3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Al

Answer 13

Ca + Al(No3)3 = Ca(No3)3 + Al
I got this....
Perhaps I did something wrong?

Answer 14

mm but it's gotta be balanced

Answer 15

hmmm

Answer 16

I believe that is balanced.

Answer 17

so i did all that stuff for nothing? lol

Answer 18

Perhaps, I'm not entirely sure. It has been a while since I have done this. You may take what I say as correct or not. Either way, no worries!

Answer 19

well i googled to make sure and they all say the same thing i said, so i'm just gonna go with that :] thank you for helping <3

Answer 20

No problem. I may still be a little rusty. I am avoiding chemistry like the plague as far as my major goes.
