BeSO₄ + 2NH₄OH → Be(
OH)₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₄
Further explanation
Given
Reaction
BeSO₄ + 2NH₄OH → Be(
...)₂ + (NH₄)₂SO₄
Required
The products
Solution
There are two possible displacement reactions
Single replacement if one element replaces or reduces another element in the compound and forms a new compound
A + BC ⇒ AC + B
Double replacement if both the cations and anions of the two compounds in the reactant swap positions to form 2 new compounds in the product
AB + CD ⇒ AD + CB
Thus, the product is Be(OH)₂
