Question

balance the questions TiCl4 + H2O ----> TiO2 + HCl​

Answer 1

Answer:

Balanced Chemical Equation

TiCl4 + 2H2O → TiO2 + 4HCl

Answer 2

$\red\bigstar$ Explanation $\red\bigstar$

$\leadsto$ Solution:-

First let's balance the number of molecules of titanium (Ti) on both the sides

On the reactants side there is 1 molecule of Ti in $\rm TiCl_4$

On the products side there is 1 molecule of Ti in $\rm TiO_2$

The number of Ti molecules are already balanced.

Now let's balance the number of molecules of chlorine (Cl) on both the sides

On the reactants side there are 4 molecules of Cl in $\rm TiCl_4$

On the products side there is 1 molecule of Ti in $\rm HCl$

To balance the number of molecules of Cl on both sides we are multiplying by 4 to HCl

So the chemical equation becomes,

$\rm TiCl_4 + H_2O \longrightarrow TiO_2 + 4HCl$

Now let's balance the number of molecules of Hydrogen (H) on both the sides

On the reactants side there are 2 molecules of H in $\rm H_2O$

On the products side there is 4 molecule of H in $\rm 4HCl$

To balance the number of molecules of H on both sides we are multiplying by 2 to $\rm H_2O$

So the chemical equation becomes,

$\rm TiCl_4 + 2H_2O \longrightarrow TiO_2 + 4HCl$

Now let's balance the number of molecules of Oxgen (O) on both the sides

On the reactants side there are 2 molecules of O in $\rm 2H_2O$

On the products side there is 2 molecule of O in $\rm TiO_2$

As the number of molecules of each element on both the sides are equal, therefore

the chemical equation is balanced

The balanced equation is,

$\rm TiCl_4 + 2H_2O \longrightarrow TiO_2 + 4HCl$
