Question

1.)Which is the correctly balanced equation?

Answer 1

A. The correctly balanced equation is that in which the number of atoms of a certain element at the left-hand side is similar to that in the right hand side or the reactant side and product side, respectively. From the given equation, the answer would be,

       C. Cl2 + 2NaI --> 2NaCl + I2


B. In the given chemical reaction above, heat is emitted such that it appears in the product side of the equation. Hence, this is an example of a combustion reaction. 

C. Similar with the reasoning in letter A, the answer to this item is,
          B. 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O
