The coefficient for NaNO₃ = 6
<h3>Further explanation
</h3>
Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:
• 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.
• 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product
• 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1
Reaction
AI(NO₃)₃ +Na₂SO₄ →
Al₂(SO₄) +
NaNO₃
give coefficient
aAI(NO₃)₃ +bNa₂SO₄ →
Al₂(SO₄)₃ +c
NaNO₃
Al, left=a, right=2⇒a=2
N, left=3a, right=c⇒3a=c⇒3.2=c⇒c=6
Na, left=2b, right=c⇒2b=c⇒2b=6⇒b=3
The equation becomes :
2AI(NO₃)₃ +3Na₂SO₄ →
Al₂(SO₄)₃ +6NaNO₃
Answer: B). little wind
Explanation: Deserts have few large animals, fertile soil, and little rainfall but they have lots of wind
