Answer:
2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂
2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg
Explanation:
A balanced chemical equation is a chemical equation that have an equal number of elements of each type on both sides of the equation
Among the given chemical reactions, we have;
2PBr₃ + 3Cl₂ → 2PCl₃ + 3Br₂
In the above reaction;
The number of phosphorus, P, on either side of the equation = 2
The number of bromine atoms, Br, on either side of the equation = 6
The number of chlorine atoms, Cl, on either side of the equation = 6
Therefore, the number of elements in the reactant side and products side of the reaction are equal and the reaction is balanced
The second balanced chemical reaction is 2Na + MgCl₂ → 2NaCl + Mg
In the above reaction, there are two sodium atoms, Na, one magnesium atom and two chlorine atoms on both sides of the reaction, therefore, the reaction is balanced
