Question

Classify each of the unbalanced chemical reactions as one possible types by matching the classification to the correct reaction.

Co(NO3)2(aq) + H2S (g) = CoS (s) + HNO3(aq)

Fe (s) + Cd(NO3)2(aq) =   Fe(NO3)2 (aq) + Cd (s)

Fe2(CO3)3(s) =   Fe2O3(s) + CO2(g)

Sn (s) + P (s) = Sn3P2(s)

A.

combination

B.

decomposition

C.

double replacement

D.

neutralization

E.

single replacement

  

Co(NO3)2(aq) + H2S (g) = CoS (s) + HNO3(aq)

Fe (s) + Cd(NO3)2(aq) =   Fe(NO3)2 (aq) + Cd (s)

Fe2(CO3)3(s) =   Fe2O3(s) + CO2(g)

.   

Sn (s) + P (s) = Sn3P2(s)

Explanation / Answer

1. Co(NO3)2 (aq) + H2S (g) = CoS (s) + HNO3 (aq) - Double replacement

2. Fe(s) + Cd(NO3 )2 (aq) = Fe(NO3)2 (aq) + Cd (s) - Neutralisation

3.   Fe2(CO3)3 (s) =   Fe2O3 (s) + CO2 (g) - Decomposition

4. Sn (s) + P (s) = Sn3P2 (s) - Combination
