(a)
Interpretation:
The complete balanced equation for the given incomplete reaction has to be written.
Concept Introduction:
Balanced Chemical equation:
A balanced chemical equation is an equation which contains same elements in same number on both the sides (reactant and product side) of the chemical equation thereby obeying the law of conservation of mass.
(a)
Answer to Problem 21.94QP
Explanation of Solution
To Write: The complete balanced equation for the given incomplete reaction.
Lithium bicarbonate undergoes decomposition while heating and gives lithium carbonate, water and carbon dioxide.
The balanced equation is given as follows,
Lithium carbonate has two lithium atoms. Thus, lithium bicarbonate on reactants side gets coefficient two and other compounds does not need any coefficient. Now in both sides the elements are balanced.
(b)
Interpretation:
The complete balanced equation for the given incomplete reaction has to be written.

Answer to Problem 21.94QP
Explanation of Solution
To Write: The complete balanced equation for the given incomplete reaction.
Sodium sulfate reacts with barium chloride to form sodium chloride and barium sulfate solution.
The balanced equation is given as follows,
There are two sodium, one barium, one sulfur, two chlorine and four oxygen atoms on reactant side. Product side has one barium, one sulfur, one sodium, one chlorine and four oxygen. Only sodium chloride gets coefficient two and balances the equation. Now in both sides the elements are balanced.
