What type of equation is represented above?
The reaction \(2NaOH + CuCl_2 → Cu(OH)_2 + 2NaCl\) is a double replacement reaction.
Looking at the equation above, is the Law of Conservation of Matter followed?
Yes, the Law of Conservation of Matter is followed because there are equal numbers of each type of atom on both the reactant and product sides: 2 sodium (Na), 2 oxygen (O), 2 hydrogen (H), 1 copper (Cu), and 2 chlorine (Cl).
So the correct responses are:
double replacement
Yes, because there are 2 sodium, 2 Oxygen, 2 Hydrogen, 1 Copper, and 2 Chlorine on both the reactant and product side.
