Question

Step 2: Now that you have counted the atoms on each side, add coefficients to balance the equation. Check your work by updating the number of atoms on each side in the table below (Remember to multiply coefficients by subscripts): NaF + NaBr + CaF2 CaBr2 Reactants Products Na- Na- Br- Br- Ca- Ca- IF- ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answers to your questions are given below.

Explanation:

__ NaBr + CaF₂ —> __ NaF + CaBr₂

The above equation can be balance as follow:

NaBr + CaF₂ —> NaF + CaBr₂

There are 2 atoms of F on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before NaF as shown below:

NaBr + CaF₂ —> 2NaF + CaBr₂

There are 2 atoms of Na on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by writing 2 before NaBr as shown below:

2NaBr + CaF₂ —> 2NaF + CaBr₂

Now, the equation is balanced.

Atom >>>> Reactant >>>> Product

Na >>>>>> 2 >>>>>>>>>>> 2

Br >>>>>>> 2 >>>>>>>>>>> 2

Ca >>>>>> 1 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

F >>>>>>> 2 >>>>>>>>>>>> 2
