Show an example:
Mg + 2 HCl = MgCl2 + H2
The general word equation for the reaction between acids and metal oxides is: acid + metal oxide -> salt + water. The specific salt formed depends on the acid and metal oxide involved in the reaction.
The word equation for calcium reacting with oxygen is: calcium + oxygen → calcium oxide.
The word equation for copper reacting with oxygen is: copper + oxygen → copper oxide.
The word equation for sodium reacting with water is: sodium + water → sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas.
The word equation for triglycerides is "triglyceride = glycerol + 3 fatty acids."
Steel + Oxygen = Steel Oxide
Caesium + water ------> Caesium hydroxide + Hydrogen
The word equation for the synthesis of a fat is: glycerol + fatty acids = fat + water.
When a metal is added to an acid, it typically forms a metal salt and hydrogen gas. The general word equation is: metal + acid → metal salt + hydrogen gas.
The word equation for silver reacting with water is "silver + water → silver oxide + hydrogen gas."
The word equation for aluminium reacting with water is: aluminium + water → aluminium hydroxide + hydrogen gas.
The word equation for the reaction between acid and metal carbonate is acid + metal carbonate → salt + water + carbon dioxide.
