What are the correct formulas and coefficients for the products of this double-replacement reaction? rboh + h3po4 → rb3po4 + 3h2o rbpo4 + 2h2o rb(po4)3 + h2o h3rb + po4oh?

Respuesta :

Answer is: Rb₃PO₄ + 3H₂O.
Reaction: 3RbOH + H₃PO₄ → Rb₃PO₄ + 3H₂O.
RbOH - rubidium hydroxide, base.
H₃PO₄ - orthophosphoric acid.
Rb₃PO₄ - rubidium-phosphate.
H₂O - water.
This type of reaction is called neutralisation.
Neutralisation is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react with each other.

The correct formulas and coefficients for the products of the given double displacement reaction are [tex]\boxed{{\text{R}}{{\text{b}}_3}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_4}{\text{ and 3}}{{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}}}[/tex].

Further Explanation:

Double displacement reaction

It is the type of chemical reaction in which the ions of two reactants get exchanged with each other and as a result, new compounds are produced. It generally forms an insoluble mass called precipitate. Such types of reactions are also known as a double replacement or salt metathesis or double decomposition reactions.

A general equation for double displacement reaction can be written as follows:

 [tex]{\text{AB}} + {\text{CD}} \to {\text{AD}} + {\text{CB}}[/tex]

Here,

AB and CD are the two reactants.

AD and CB are the two products.

The reaction between RbOH and [tex]{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}[/tex] takes place as follows:

 [tex]{\text{RbOH}} + {{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}} \to {\text{R}}{{\text{b}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}} + {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}[/tex]

Since the above reaction does not have an equal number of atoms of all the elements on both sides of the equation, the chemical reaction is said to be unbalanced. To balance the above reaction, multiply RbOH by 3 and [tex]\text{H}_2\text{O}[/tex] by 3. Therefore the balanced chemical reaction is as follows:

[tex]{\text{3RbOH}} + {{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}} \to {\text{R}}{{\text{b}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{P}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}} + 3{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}[/tex]
