Question

When a dissolved beryllium chloride react with dissolved silver nitrate in water, aqueous beryllium nitrate and powder silver chloride are made. Choose correct word equation for the chemical reaction.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

BeCl2 + 2AgNO3 → Be(NO3)2 + 2AgCl

Answer 2

The word equation for the chemical reaction is:

Beryllium chloride (aq) + Silver nitrate (aq) $\rightarrow$ Beryllium nitrate (aq) + Silver chloride (s)

Explanation:

• Reactants are Beryllium chloride (aq) and silver nitrate (aq)
• Products are Beryllium nitrate (aq) and silver chloride (s)

So, the correct word equation would be:

• Beryllium chloride (aq) + Silver nitrate (aq) $\rightarrow$ Beryllium nitrate (aq) + Silver chloride (s)

And the balanced chemical equation would be:

• $BeCl_2(aq) + 2AgNO_3(aq) \rightarrow Be(NO_3)_2(aq) + 2AgCl$
