Type the correct answer in each box.

Which chemical symbols will complete the equation for this single displacement reaction?

[tex]\[ 2 \, \text{NaBr} + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow 2 \, \square \, + \, \square \, 2 \][/tex]



Answer :

To solve this single displacement reaction, we need to identify the products formed when Chlorine (Cl[tex]\(_2\)[/tex]) reacts with Sodium Bromide (NaBr).

1. This reaction is a single displacement reaction in which Chlorine (Cl[tex]\(_2\)[/tex]) will replace Bromine (Br) in Sodium Bromide (NaBr).

2. As a result of the reaction, Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and Bromine (Br[tex]\(_2\)[/tex]) are formed.

3. The balanced chemical equation is:
[tex]\[ 2 \text{NaBr} + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{NaCl} + \text{Br}_2 \][/tex]

Let’s fill in the boxes in the chemical equation:
[tex]\[ 2 \text{NaBr} + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{NaCl} + \text{Br}_2 \][/tex]

So, the correct chemical symbols to complete the equation are:
1. NaCl
2. Br[tex]\(_2\)[/tex]

In the boxes, you should write:
1. NaCl
2. Br[tex]\(_2\)[/tex]

Thus, the completed equation looks like:
[tex]\[ 2 \text{NaBr} + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{NaCl} + \text{Br}_2 \][/tex]
