Hello!

When finding the chemical formula of a compound, we will need to find the charges of each element/bond.

Looking at our period table, sodium has a +1 charge, written as Na 1+, and sulfate has a charge of -2, and it is written as SO4 2-.

Now, we need to make the charges equivalent. To do this, we need to "criss-cross" the charges. This means that sodium will need to additional atoms to make the charges equal, and sulfate will need one.

Therefore, the chemical formula for sodium sulfate is: Na2SO4.

What is 2 H2 + 1 O2 = 2 H2O balanced?

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Yes, that is correctly balanced. 2 H2 + 1 O2 = 2 H2O is already balanced.

Explanation:

If you count up the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms on each side, you will see that they are equal:

2 H2 + 1 O2 (4 hydrogen and 2 oxygen) = 2 H2O (4 hydrogen and 2 oxygen).
