There should be mass balance and the charge balance between the reactants and the products
Mass balance : total no of individual atoms of each type should be balanced before and after the reaction
Charge balance : Overall charge of the reactants should be balanced with the overall charge of the products
You can balance,
1)by just looking at it
2)by Algebraic method given above or
3)by the redox method
You need to know how to get the oxidation numbers in order to use the oxidation method
Answer: The metal that has a greater reactivity is more easily oxidized.
Explanation:
Oxidation is when the elements lose electrons and increase their oxidation state.
The metals tend to react by losing electrons and form the corresponding cation.
For expample, sodium (an alkalyne metal) loses one elecron and form the cation Na¹⁺ , then this cation combine with an anion and form compounds like NaCl, NaOH. The same do the other alkalyne metals.
Magnesium (an alkalyne earth metal) loses two electrons and form the cation Mg²⁺, then it combines with some anions to form compounds, like MgSO₄, Mg(OH)₂.
So, the easier the metal gets oxidized the greater its reactivity.
Molecular Motion<span> is the speed at which molecules or atoms move dependent on temperature and state of matter.
Explanation:
</span>All molecules are<span> in constant motion. Molecules of a liquid have </span>a lot of<span> freedom of movement than those </span>in an exceedingly<span> solid. Molecules </span>in an exceedingly<span> gas have </span>the best<span> degree of motion.</span>

Heat, temperature </span>and also the<span> motion of molecules </span>area unit<span> all </span>connected<span>. Temperature </span>could be a life<span> of </span>the common K.E.<span> of the molecules </span>in an exceedingly<span> material.
