Word Equations Worksheet - Solutions

Write the word equation and formula equation for each of the following chemical reactions:

1) When dissolved beryllium chloride reacts with dissolved silver nitrate in water, aqueous beryllium nitrate and
silver chloride powder are made.

beryllium chloride + silver nitrate --> beryllium nitrate + silver chloride

BeCl2(aq) + AgNO3(aq) Æ Be(NO3)2(aq) + AgCl(s)

2) When isopropanol (C3H8O) burns in oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, and heat are produced.
isopropanol +oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water +heat

C3H8O(l) + O2(g) Æ CO2(g) + H2O(g) + '

3) When dissolved sodium hydroxide reacts with sulfuric acid, aqueous sodium sulfate, water, and heat are
formed.
sodium hydroxide + sulfuric acid -->sodium sulfate + water + heat

NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(l) Æ Na2SO4 + H2O(l) + '

4) When fluorine gas is put into contact with calcium metal at high temperatures, calcium fluoride powder is

fluorine + calcium --> calcium fluoride

F2(g) + Ca(s) Æ CaF2(s) + '

5) When sodium metal reacts with iron (II) chloride, iron metal and sodium chloride are formed.

sodium + iron (II) chloride -->iron + sodium chloride

Na(s) + FeCl2(s) Æ NaCl(s) + Fe(s)
