Question

Na+CL2=NaCL - balance the equation

Answer 1

Balancing equation

Explanation:

• In the given reaction, sodium is reacting with chlorine to produce sodium chloride
• The chemical equation involved is

$Na+Cl_2\rightarrow NaCl$

• When the number of atoms for the reactant side is calculated it gives:

Na = 1

Cl = 2

• When the number of atoms for the product side is calculated it gives:

Na = 1

Cl = 1

• The obtained result indicates that the Chlorine atom is not equal on both sides. Thus the reaction is not balanced.
• The balanced reaction has the number of atoms involved in reaction in reactants as well as the product is equal.
• To make both side equal some changes must be made as shown in the balanced equation is

$2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl$

• For the above equation, the number of atoms in the reactants is:

Na= 2

Cl = 2

• The number of atoms in products is:

Na = 2

Cl = 2

• As the number of atoms in the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms in the product side, the reaction is balanced.
