Double-Replacement Reactions Worksheet 1
Remember, cations are exchanged between compounds.
A+B- + C+D-  A+D- + C+BComplete the word equation. Write and balance the chemical equation.
It may be easier to write the chemical equation before completing the word equation.
For each reaction, include the correct state that each compound is in. For all reactants, this
should be aqueous. Use your solubility chart to determine the solubility of the reaction products
of ionic compounds. Specify with “(ppt)” if an insoluble product results. Use “(g)” if a gas is
produced. If both products are soluble, draw an “X” over the arrow to indicate that no reaction
occurs. In both situations with mercury, the mercury product will form a precipitate.
