Complete and balance the following equations : Al + NaOH +___--->+

Al + 3NaOH  = Al(OH)₃ +3Na

Explanation:

The reaction is given as:

            Al + NaOH  = Al(OH)₃ + Na

This reaction is called a single displacement reaction in which one specie displaces another from a solution.

 To balance the equation:

                aAl + bNaOH  = cAl(OH)₃ + dNa

a, b, c and d are the coefficient that will balance the equation:

     Conserving Al;

                 a = c

     Conserving Na;

                b  = d

     Conserving O;

                 b  = 3c

     Conserving H;

                b = 3c

Let a  = 1, c = 1, b = 3 and d = 3

             Al + 3NaOH  = Al(OH)₃ +3Na

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.

by the combination of an unlimited number of elements
