Given Fe(OH)3 + Na Br react in a double displacement, what is/are the formulas of the product/s?​

Sagot :

Answer:

FeBr₃ and NaOH

Explanation:

In a double displacement reaction, the ionic species of both reactants are exchanged between each other, as follows:

  • Fe(OH)₃ + 3NaBr → FeBr₃ + 3NaOH

That way the cation Fe⁺³ (originally bonded to OH⁻) is bonded to the anion Br⁻ instead, while Na⁺ bonds to OH⁻ (instead of Br⁻).
