Question

this passage describes a chemical reaction. read the passage. then, answer the question below.

soda - lime glass is the most common type of glass manufactured in the world. the \soda\ in soda - lime glass does not come from a soft drink. instead, it comes from a substance called soda ash (na₂co₃). soda ash is made using the solvay process, which was developed in the 1860s. in this process, soda ash and calcium chloride (cacl₂) are made from sodium chloride (nacl) and calcium carbonate (caco₃).

in the chemical reaction described in the passage, which of the following are products? select all that apply.

soda ash (na₂co₃) sodium chloride (nacl)
calcium carbonate (caco₃) calcium chloride (cacl₂)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The passage states that in the Solvay process, soda ash (\(Na_2CO_3\)) and calcium chloride (\(CaCl_2\)) are made. So these two are the products. Sodium chloride (\(NaCl\)) and calcium carbonate (\(CaCO_3\)) are the starting materials (reactants) used to make the products.

Answer:

soda ash (\(Na_2CO_3\)), calcium chloride (\(CaCl_2\))
