Question

HELP!

Answer 1

whats your question?

Answer 2

ok do u know how to balance it ?

Answer 3

nope!

Answer 4

okay, got it! now what?

Answer 5

and yes make sure to balance it
that would be your ionic equation

Answer 6

so that would be the net ionic equation

Answer 7

yup

Answer 8

wait so that's not the balanced equation?

Answer 9

yes and i told u to balance it

Answer 10

ohh how do you balance it?

Answer 11

well, u just need to make sure that number of H^+ ions and O^- ions are same on both reactant and product side

Answer 12

could u show me how exactly to do that

Answer 13

ok
as u see there r 4 H+ ions on the reactant side and 2 on the product side
so u need to make 4 H^+ ions on the product side in order to balance them

Answer 14

okay so how do I add that to this --> 3H(aq) + 2OH^- (aq) ==> H2O(l)

Answer 15

what ever number u think balances the ion on both the reactant side and product side
just place it in front of the ions

Answer 16

so think of a number that would balance the H^+ ions on both sides

Answer 17

you said 4 right?

Answer 18

i don't know why my drawing is missing the last par.....6H2O

Answer 19

so what does the final answer look like?

Answer 20

all you have to do si just balance the equation...and the product is
3 Ca(OH)2 + 2 H3PO4 = Ca3(PO4)2 + 6 H2O

Answer 21

from calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid produces tricalcium phasphate and water.

Answer 22

but how do you balance the equation?

Answer 23

wait....

Answer 24

do you know how to balance equation????

Answer 25

no, I dont

Answer 26

i mean do you know the basics???

Answer 27

um not really

Answer 28

ok i'm sending you a link to watch...

Answer 30

you need to understand when we balance an equation we are basically balancing the quantities of reactants. basically we are saying how many moles of calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid do we need to produce tricalcium phosphate and without wasting any reactants.

Answer 31

H3PO4(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) are two different solutions. H3PO4 is an acid and Ca(OH)2 is a base, when they react with each other, they will always make water and an ionic compound/salts. In this case the ionic compound is Tricalcium Phosphate. This is a double displacement reaction where calcium ions will displace hydrogen ions from H3(PO4) compound and make a stronger bond with phosphate to become tricalcium phosphate Ca3(PO4)2 and the rest is just just water.
