Cl₂0₅ + H₂O → 2HCIO₃
2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O
Further explanation
Given
Chemical equations
Required
The balanced combination equation
Solution
There are several types of reactions that can occur
Synthesis/combination : 2 elements combine to form a single product
A + B⇒AB
Decomposition: One compound breaks down into 2 components
AB⇒A + B
Decomposition is the reverse of syntesis reaction
A balanced equation shows that the number of atoms from the reactant and product sides is the same
The chemical equations that fulfill the two things above (combined and balanced reactions) are:
Cl₂0₅ + H₂O → 2HCIO₃
2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O
