Use of State symbols in Chemical Equations
Use of state symbols is very key to get marks in IB diploma exams. It is not difficult to use state symbols in chemical equations.
What is state symbols?
State symbols are symbols used to represent the physical state of reactants and products in a chemical equation.
What is state symbols?
State symbols are symbols used to represent the physical state of reactants and products in a chemical equation.
Example:
White solid magnesium Oxide is formed when Magnesium metal ribbon is burned in air( oxygen gas).
2Mg(s) + O2(g) à 2 MgO(S)
Try to write the state symbols of the following equations:
Ag+ + X− → AgX(s)
Na2O + H2O → 2NaOH
MgO + H2O → Mg(OH)2
Li2O(s) + 2HCl → 2LiCl + H2O
MgO + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2O
P4O10+ 6 H2O→ 4H3PO4
