Helping child with chemistry test corrects...she is stuck writing and balancing this equation only got half credit for her answer:?
Aqueous Aluminum Sulfate reacts with solid barium chloride to produce solid aluminum chloride and liquid barium sulfate. What is the balance formula equation (including state of matter)?
She wrote
(using > to indicate the sub number)
2Al(SO>4)>3(aq) _3BaCL>2(s) ------------------>2ALCL>3(s) + 3Ba(SO>4)>2(L)
Where did she mess it up? Thanks!
I did mean to type a + where the underscore is...oops

Don't forget that the charge on Al is 3+ and SO4 is 2-. Therefore, the balanced equation should be
Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 3BaCl2(s)>>>>>> 3BaSO4(s) +2AlCl3(aq)
