Question

Consider the reaction 2AI(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 Right arrow. X + 6Y. What are X and Y? X = AI2(SO4)3; Y = H2O X = AI2(SO4)3; Y = H2 X = AI2(SO3)3; Y = H2O X = AI2(SO3)3; Y = H2

Answer 1

Answer :

X = $Al_2(SO_4)_3$

Y = $H_2O$

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

The given chemical equation is:

$2Al(OH)_3+3H_2SO_4\rightarrow X+6Y$

As we know that when aluminum hydroxide react with sulfuric acid then it gives aluminum sulfate and water as product.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

$2Al(OH)_3+3H_2SO_4\rightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3+6H_2O$

Thus, X is $Al_2(SO_4)_3$ and Y is $H_2O$
