Question

Potassium Nitrate and Sodium Nitrate reacts separately with copper sulphate solution. Write balanced chemical equations for the above reactions

Answer 1

2KNO3 + CuSO4 =====> K2SO4 + Cu(NO3)2
2NaNO3 + CuSO4 =====> Na2SO4 + Cu(NO3)2

Answer 2

The reaction between potassium nitrate and copper sulphate is a s follows:

2 KNO₃ + CuSO₄ = K2SO₄ + Cu(NO₃)₂

This type of reaction is a double replacement reaction.

The reaction between sodium nitrate and copper sulphate is as follows:

2 NaNO₃ + CuSO₄ = Cu(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄

This kind of reaction is called a double replacement reaction.
