QUESTION: For the following reactants, predict the products formed (if any) and write the balanced molecular equation, complete ionic equation and net ionic equation. Ca(s) + HCl(aq)

Explanation / Answer

The full equation is Ca(s)+2HCl(aq)-->CaCl2(aq)+H2(g) to get the net ionic equation, you will look at the elements that did not change through the reaction In this case Ca changed because it was (s) or solid and became (aq) or aqueous so it stays in the net ionic equation H changed from (aq) to (g) so it stays but Cl stayed the same(aq) and still (aq) so the net ionic equation is Ca+H2--->CaH2
