Question

Solutions of aluminum nitrate and sodium sulfate react to form sodium nitrate and aluminum sulfate. Classify this reaction.

2AL(NO3)3(Aq)+3Na2SO4(Aq) ---> AL2(SO4)3(s)+6NaNO3(aq)

A) synthesis
B) decomposition
C) single replacement
D) double replacement

Answer 1

2 Al(NO₃)₃ + 3 Na₂SO₄ = Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6 NaNO₃

Aluminium Nitrate + Salt Cake = Aluminium Sulfate + Sodium Nitrate

Answer D ( double replacement )

hope this helps!

Answer 2

Double replacement.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given reaction, there is not synthesis of compound.

The decomposition reactions are those in which a compound dissociates into simpler molecules or ions.

So the given reaction is not decomposition even.

In single replacement reactions, there is replacement of one group from a compound to other compound or element or ion.

Here two groups are being replaced (sulfate and nitrate) so the given reaction will be classified as double replacement.
