Hope this may help you

Thank you

Answer 2

The option that is true for an unbalanced equation is either the number of atoms is less on the left side - option b or more on the right side of the equation - option c. (OPTION D)

BALANCED CHEMICAL EQUATION -

• The reaction in which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to those on the product side.
• The coefficient of the species shows the respective number of atoms in the equation.
• The equation satisfies the consistency of the law of conservation of matter.
• Example - Methane reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water in the ratio of 1:2:1:2 forming a balanced chemical reaction.
