Question

how to balance chemical equation with an example​

Answer 1

Answer:

please mark as brainliest

Explanation:

• Count the number of atoms of each element in the reactants and in the products. Reactants: C=6, H=12, O=8. ...
• Balance the equation. It is easier to start with carbon as it only appears once on each side. ...
• Change the coefficients again to try to balance the equation. ...
• Now we just need to balance the oxygen atoms.

$\rule{200}3$

To balance a chemical equation, start by writing down the number of atoms in each element, which is listed in the subscript next to each atom. ★ Then, add coefficients to the atoms on each side of the equation to balance them with the same atoms on the other side.

$\rule{200}3$

$\mathfrak \blue{Example:-}$

★Fe2O3 + C --> Fe + CO2 (Unbalanced)

=> To balance them, we put a coefficient of 2 in front of H2O.

=> The hydrogen (H) atoms are now balanced. Due to the coefficient 2 in front of H2O, there are a total of 4 oxygen (O) atoms on the products side.

=> To balance the oxygen atoms on both sides, we put a coefficient of 2 in front of O2.

★ 2Fe2O3 + 3C --> 4Fe + 3CO2

($\mathfrak \blue{Balanced}$)

$\rule{200}3$
