∙ 10y agoFirst off, you have the equation written wrong... those are Ls not Is. so it's
Al2(CO3)3 + ZnCl2 = ZnCO3 + AlCl3
The balanced form of that equation is Al2(CO3)3 + 3 ZnCl2 = 3 ZnCO3 + 2 AlCl3
So the coefficients are 1,3,3,2

∙ 10y agoThe balanced equation given is: 2Al2(CO3)3 + 3ZnCl2 -> 3ZnCO3 + 2AlCl3. The correct coefficients and order are already written in the balanced equation provided.
Aluminum chloride
The real name for AICI3 is aluminum iodide. It is a chemical compound composed of aluminum and iodine.
Aluminum chloride is the ionic compound represented by the formula AlCl3.
Aluminium chloride does not exist as seperate atoms as it is an ionic compound.
The formula as given does not correspond to any actual compound. Assuming that it was intended to read "AlCl3", its formally correct name is "aluminum trichloride" if it is considered a covalent compound and "aluminum (III) chloride" if it is considered ionic. (In Britain and many formerly British possessions, "aluminum" is spelled "aluminium".)
Under IUPAC naming conventions, AlCl3 is called aluminum chloride. It is also commonly called aluminum trichloride and aluminum (III) chloride.
There are a total of 10 atoms in AlCl3: 1 aluminum atom and 3 chlorine atoms.
The charge on a chloride ion (Cl-) in AlCl3 is -1. This is because aluminum (Al) has a charge of +3, and since the compound is neutral overall, each chloride ion must carry a charge of -1 to balance the positive charge of the aluminum ion.
The charge on a chloride ion in AlCl3 is -1. This is because aluminum typically has a +3 charge in ionic compounds, so in order for the compound to be neutral overall, each chloride ion must have a charge of -1.
Silver chloride (AgCl) is the most stable compound out of the ones listed. This is because silver (Ag) is a transition metal with a filled d orbital, which contributes to its stability compared to the other compounds. The other compounds listed (CuCl2, AlCl3, LiCl) are less stable due to the electronic configuration and charge distribution of their respective elements.
