Answer:
3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄
The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were:
Silver chloride reacts with sodium phosphate to yield sodium chloride and silver phosphate. This can be written as follow:
AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄
The above equation can be balanced as follow:
AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄
There are 3 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of NaCl as shown below:
AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄
There are 3 atoms of Cl on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of AgCl as shown below:
3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄
Thus, the equation is balanced.
The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1
