1)a) Chemical Equation: Zn (s) + 2HCl (aq) ---> ZnCl₂ (aq) + H2 (g)        Ionic Equation: Zn (s) + 2H⁺ (aq) ---> Zn²⁺ (aq) + H₂ (g)

b) Chemical Equation: CaCO₃ (s) + 2HNO₃ (aq) ---> Ca(NO₃)₂ (aq) + CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)        Ionic Equation: CaCO₃ (s) + 2H⁺ (aq) ---> Ca²⁺ (aq) + CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)c) Chemical Equation: 2NaOH(aq) + H₂SO₄(aq) ---> Na₂SO₄ (aq) + H₂O(l)        Ionic Equation: OH^- (aq) + H⁺ (aq) ---> H₂O (l)

d) Chemical Equation: 2NaOH (aq) + CuSO₄ (aq) ---> Na₂SO₄(aq) + Cu(OH)₂ (s)        Ionic Equation: 2OH^-(aq) + Cu²⁺ (aq) ---> Cu(OH)₂ (s)

e) Chemical Equation: H₂SO₄ (aq) + Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s) + 2HNO₃ (aq)        Ionic Equation: SO₄^2-(aq) + Ba²⁺(aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s)
