When one observes the phase of matter of water, one observes a physical property of matter.
Add 7 water atom to the right hand side to adjust the quantity of oxygen. Increase Cr(+3) by two to adjust the quantity of Cr. Duplicate Cl-by two to adjust the quantity of chlorine molecules.
Cr2O7[2-](aq) +2 Cl[-](aq) < - >2 Cr[3+] (aq) + Cl2(g)+7H2O
Presently adjust that charges.
you have - 4 charges on the left hand side, while +18 charges on the right hand side, there for include 14H+ the left hand side to adjust the charges
Cr2O7[2-](aq) +2 Cl[-](aq)+14H+ < - >2 Cr[3+] (aq) + Cl2(g)+7H2O
take note of that the oxidation number of hydrogen in water is +1
Answer:
[O2(g)][SO2(g)]^2/[SO3(g)]^2
For balancing acidic solutions, we would need to add H+ ions to the correct side of the equation to balance the total number of atoms and the overall charge.
