Question

multiple choice 1 point
which of the following is the equation for the combination of solid zinc with liquid bromine to produce solid zinc bromide?
○ zn(s) + br₂(aq) → znbr₂(s)
○ zn₂(s) + br(l) → znbr₂(s)
○ zn(s) + br₂(l) → znbr₂(s)
○ znbr₂(s) → zn(s) + br₂(l)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify reactants and products

Reactants are solid zinc (Zn(s)) and liquid bromine (Br₂(l)). Product is solid zinc bromide (ZnBr₂(s)).

Step2: Write correct chemical - equation

The correct combination reaction is Zn(s) + Br₂(l) → ZnBr₂(s).

Answer:

Zn(s) + Br₂(l) → ZnBr₂(s) (the third option in the multiple - choice list)
