12.

A lab group reacts sodium oxide (Na2O) with hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H2O). When writing their lab report, they came up with the following equation to represent the reaction:

Na2O + HCl →NaCl + H2O

a)

Yes, since there are 5 reactant atoms and 5 product atoms.

b)

Yes, since there is a subscript of 2 on both sides on the equation.

c)

No, since there are two sodium atoms as reactants, but only one sodium atom as a product.

d)

No, since there is a liquid and a solid as reactants, but a gas and a solid as a product.

13.

A student draws a picture of the products and reactants of a chemical reaction. What, if anything, is wrong with the drawing?

a)

The drawing is wrong because there are more chemicals on the products side.

b)

The drawing is correct because there are 12 compounds on each side of the arrow.

c)

The drawing is wrong because there are different compounds on each side of the arrow.

d)

The drawing is correct because there are 12 atoms of each type on each side of the arrow.

14.

(a)   are located on the LEFT side of the arrow in a chemical reaction.

Example:

  • 2Na(s) + O 2(g) → 2Na 2O(s)

15.

(a)   are located on the RIGHT side of the arrow in a chemical reaction.

Example:

  • 2Na(s) + O 2(g) → 2Na 2O(s)
