1. Write the chemical formulas:
* Silver hydroxide: AgOH (solid)
* Hydrobromic acid: HBr (aqueous)
2. Identify the products:
* Silver hydroxide reacts with hydrobromic acid to form silver bromide (AgBr), a solid, and water (H₂O).
3. Write the unbalanced equation:
AgOH(s) + HBr(aq) → AgBr(s) + H₂O(l)
4. Balance the equation:
The equation is already balanced. Each side has:
* 1 Ag atom
* 1 O atom
* 1 Br atom
* 1 H atom
Therefore, the balanced chemical equation is:
AgOH(s) + HBr(aq) → AgBr(s) + H₂O(l)
