Question

Write a chemical equation for the reaction of:

(2) Calcium with water

Answer 1

Chemical Equation:

• Chemical equations are used to represent chemical reactions.
• This equation involves reactants on one side of the arrow and products on another side of the arrow

The reaction of calcium with water:

• Calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas are formed when calcium combines with water.
• The chemical equation is as follows:
• $\mathrm{Ca}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+2{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)\to \mathrm{Ca}{\left(\mathrm{OH}\right)}_2\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$
