What reaction number requires NH4Cl?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

I don't know what the question is, and what the answer choices are. Can you elaborate?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Yeah, but like you, I don't know what it's asking for..

OpenStudy (noelgreco):

Notice that F and K are even and odd on the left, the coefficient of potassium phosphate has to be even. Try and even number (2) and see what happens

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Oh, your just suppose to balance this?

OpenStudy (noelgreco):

It's just asking you to balance the double replacement reaction.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Good eyes @NoelGreco

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Make both sides have the same amount of Ba F K PO4 Any co efficient you use will multiply the subscript of an element (if it has one)

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Can't be, if there's a 2 already on the first compound BaF2, that is only 2 Ba's and the products already have 3.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

I'll give you a hint. The reactants will be 3, 2 Figure out the products

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Note that the parenthesis on the 3rd compound won't be affected by a co efficient

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

The 3rd compound is 1, yes

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Now just get the last one
