What is the correct word equation for the chemical equation 2fe(s) + 3cl2(g) → 2fecl3(s)? solid iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chloride. solid iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chlorate. aqueous iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chlorate. aqueous iron and chlorine gas react to produce aqueous iron (iii) chloride?

Hello!

The easiest way to see the possible choices is expressing them as chemical equations:

A) solid iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chloride

Fe(s) + Cl₂(g) → FeCl₃(s)

B) solid iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chlorate

Fe(s) + Cl₂(g) → Fe(ClO₃)₃(s)

C) aqueous iron and chlorine gas react to produce solid iron (iii) chlorate

Fe(aq) + Cl₂(g) → Fe(ClO₃)₃(s)

D) aqueous iron and chlorine gas react to produce aqueous iron (iii) chloride?

Fe(aq) + Cl₂(g) → Fe(Cl)₃(aq)

So, the correct answer is A

Have a nice day!
