Question

Complete the balanced molecular chemical equation for the reaction below.

If no reaction occurs, write NR after the reaction arrow.

Cu2SO4(aq) + Li3PO4(aq)

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the complete balance of the given equation:

Explanation:

Given equation:

$Cu_2SO_4(aq) + Li_3PO_4(aq)$

$Cu_2So4\ (aq)+Li_3Po_4 \(aq) \longrightarrow Cu_3(Po_4)\ (aq)+Li_2So_4 \ (aq)$

After Balancing the equation:

$3 Cu_2So4\ (aq)+ 2 Li_3Po_4\ (aq) \longrightarrow 2 Cu_3(Po_4)\ (aq)+ 3Li_2So_4 \ (aq)$

In the above equation, when the 3 mol Copper sulfate reacts with 2 mol lithium phosphate , it will produce 2 mol Copper phosphate  and 3 mol Lithium sulfate .
