Predict the reactants of this chemical reaction. That is, fill in the left side of the chemical equation. Be sure the equation you submit is balanced.

_______ → Ba(ClO)2 + H2O(l)

Respuesta :

Answer:

2HClO(aq) + Ba(OH)₂(aq) →  Ba(ClO)₂(aq) + 2H₂O(l)

Explanation:

The reaction corresponds to a neutralization reaction between an acid and a base, as follows:

2HClO(aq) + Ba(OH)₂(aq)  →  Ba(ClO)₂(aq) + 2H₂O(l)            

From the equation above we have that the acid HClO reacts with the base Ba(OH)₂ to obtain a salt Ba(ClO)₂ and water.

In the balanced reaction, we have that 2 moles of HClO react with 1 mol of Ba(OH)₂ to produce 1 mol of Ba(ClO)₂ and 2 moles of water.

I hope it helps you!
