Which equation is unbalanced? HCl(aq)+H_2O(l)rarr Cu^(2+) + 2NO_3^-; Ca(OH)_2(s) stackrel(H_2O)rarr Ca^(2+) +2HO^-; Ca(NO_3)_2(s) stackrel(H_2O)rarr Ca^(2+) +2NO_3^- ;NH_3(aq) +H_2O(l) rightleftharpoonsNH_4^+ + HO^-;

Well you tell us. Which one does NOT conserve mass and charge.....?

Explanation:

HCl(aq)+H_2O(l)rarr Cu^(2+) + 2NO_3^-

Ca(OH)_2(s) stackrel(H_2O)rarr Ca^(2+) +2HO^-

Ca(NO_3)_2(s) stackrel(H_2O)rarr Ca^(2+) +2NO_3^-

NH_3(aq) +H_2O(l) rightleftharpoonsNH_4^+ + HO^-

And one of these things is not like the other ones.........
