Question
When hydrogen is passed over copper oxide, copper and steam are formed. Write a balanced equation for this reaction and state which of the chemicals are compounds.
Solution
The balanced equation for the reaction of hydrogen gas and copper oxide is written as follows:
H2 (g) + CuO (s) → Cu (s) + H2O (g)
Compounds: Copper oxide (CuO) in reactants' side and water (H2O) in products' side are the compounds.
Is there an error in this question or solution?
Solution When Hydrogen is Passed Over Copper Oxide, Copper and Steam Are Formed. Write a Balanced Equation for this Reaction and State Which of the Chemicals Are Compounds. Concept: Balanced Chemical Equation.
