AlËÃ(COËÄ)ËÄ ZnClËÃ æ ZnCOËÄË AlClËÄ in order?

The reaction you've provided represents a single displacement reaction between aluminum (Al) and zinc chloride (ZnCl₂). Here's the balanced chemical equation:

2 Al + 3 ZnCl₂ → 2 AlCl₃ + 3 Zn

Let's break down the steps:

1. Reactants:

- Aluminum (Al)

- Zinc chloride (ZnCl₂)

2. Products:

- Aluminum chloride (AlCl₃)

- Zinc (Zn)

Explanation:

* Aluminum (Al) is more reactive than zinc (Zn). This means it can displace zinc from its compound.

* Aluminum reacts with zinc chloride, replacing the zinc to form aluminum chloride and releasing elemental zinc.

Important Note: This reaction requires heat to initiate.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
