Question #c8170

Answer 1

`Zn(OH)_2 + 2HCl to ZnCl_2 + 2H_2O`

Explanation:

The basic equation is:
`Zn(OH)_2 + HCl to ZnCl_2 + H_2O`

if we balance the Chlorine atoms

`Zn(OH)_2 + 2HCl to ZnCl_2 + H_2O`

We now have to balance the oxygen atoms

`Zn(OH)_2 + 2HCl to ZnCl_2 + 2H_2O`

We now have the same number of each atoms of each element on each side of the equation
