Answer 2

Answer:

plz make me brainlist

Explanation:

Since there are two chlorine atoms on the left side, there needs to be two chlorine atoms on the right side. So I put a coefficient of two in front of the formula

NaCl

.

Na(s)

+

Cl

2

(

g

)

→

2NaCl

Now there are two sodium and two chlorine atoms on the right side. However, the left side has only one sodium atom. So I put a coefficient of two in front of the formula

Na

.

2Na(s)

+

Cl

2

(

g

)

→

2NaCl(s)

Now there are two sodium and two chlorine atoms on both sides of the equation and it is balanced.

Notice that I only changed the amount of each substance by changing the coefficients. I did not change the formulas
