Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the reactants and products in the given chemical equation: Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g).
Write the complete ionic equation by breaking down all aqueous compounds into their ions: Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq) + H2(g).
Identify and remove the spectator ions, which are ions that appear unchanged on both sides of the equation. In this case, Cl- ions are spectators.
Write the net ionic equation by including only the species that undergo a change: Zn(s) + 2H+(aq) → Zn2+(aq) + H2(g).
Verify that the net ionic equation is balanced in terms of both mass and charge. Ensure that the number of atoms and the total charge are the same on both sides of the equation.
