Does anyone know what the products for this reaction mightbe? Complete and balance the following equation: TiCl4  +   H2O = ? Does anyone know what the products for this reaction mightbe? Complete and balance the following equation: TiCl4  +   H2O = ?

Explanation / Answer

TiCl4 + H2O --> ? This equation looks like it might be a double displacementreaction, as the products are unlikely to have neutral charges anyother way. Therefore, the products are most likely HCl andTiO. A quick internet search confirms that TiCl4 can beoxidized, forming TiO2. So the equation must be: ?TiCl4 + ?H2O --> ?TiO2 + ?HCl In order to form HCl with Cl4, there must be 2H2O molecules. This gives 2 oxygen atoms to form TiO2 with the Ti. Answer: TiCl4 + 2H2O ---> TiO2 + 4HCl I hope I helped!
