Complete the following reactions(a) BeO+C+CI_(2)overset(600 - 800 K)to

1.	Complete the following reactions(a) BeO+C+CI_(2)overset(600 - 800 K)to ?(b) 2 BeCl, +LIAIH_(4)to ? (ii) What happens when quick lime reacts with (a) H_(2)O and(b) CO_(2)?
Answer» Solution :Beryllium oxide is HEATED with carbon and chloride to get `BeCI_(2)` `BeO + C + Cl_(2) overset(600-800K)to BeCl_(2) + CO` (B) Beryllium chloride is treated with `LiAlH_(4)` to get beryllium hydride. `2BeCl_(2) + LiAlH_(4) to 2BeH_(2) + LiCl + AICI_(3)` (II) (a) `CAO + H_(2)O + Ca(OH)_(2)`(calcium hydroxide) (b) `CaO + CO_(2) to CaCO_(3)`(calcium carbonate)
