Question

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical

Answer 1

The coefficients in order are 2, 1, 1

What is balanced chemical equation?

A balanced equation is an equation for a chemical reaction in which the number of atoms for each element in the reaction and the total charge is the same for both the reactants and the products.

In other words, the mass and the charge are balanced on both sides of the reaction.

According to the given situation,

To balance the the chemical equation,

Step 1 - Add a 2 on the Na2HPO4:

2(Na₂HPO₄)  ⇒ Na4P₂O₇ + H₂O

Step 2 -Next take count of each element on both sides to see if the 2 is balanced or not:

On the left there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

On the right there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

Step 3 - Now we will divide by 2

i.e. 2 NA.H. P

The coefficient of  Na is 2 , Coefficient of H is 1 and Coefficient of P is 1

Therefore,

The coefficients in order are 2, 1, 1.
