silver cannot replace the barium because silver is not higher in the activity series list than barium therefore example 1 is not possible

@200ret1 Example 1 is not a single replacement reaction. It is a double replacement reaction. The driving force is the formation of the precipitate, silver chloride. The activity series is used to predict if single replacement reactions will occur. Thanks for your comment, though.

My teacher is a complete dumbass compared to you.

[liittlekiid]

in less then 10 min a learned how to do that and tomorrow i will pass my quiz, i wish me teacher taught like you, thank you

[HopSingToproduction]

WHY are you not teaching at my school. My teacher sucks

[zulauf09]

@DaShanic1 No, actually, since there is no hydrogen or carbon in the reactants, the reaction is not combining with oxygen to form oxides in the products. Good question though.

[btjohnson96]

thank you; you are wonderful.

[DaShanic1]

And isn't Example 3 an combustion since it has oxygen??

[DaShanic1]

Magnesium has 2 positive ions..

Thank you so much for this. I have been struggling with this concept for a while now and I understand it a lot better now. Thank you so much and I hope you continue to make these videos.

Was phased out during class, this is all so much easier then the hour long lecture, thanks!
