_Mg + _HCL = _MgCl2 + H2
Separate the terms on each side:
_Mg + _HCl = _MgCl2 + H2
Mg- 1 Mg-1
H-1 H-2
Cl-1 Cl-2
Mg is balanced on both sides so move on to the next (put a 1 in the space).
1Mg
There are two H's and two Cl's on the results side, so to balance the equation put a 2 as a coefficient for HCl and it'll all balance out.
2HCl
Balamced equation will be:
1Mg + 2HCL = 1MgCl2 + H2
energy is required to move from one state or phase of matter to the next. Energy is used to make a liquid into a gas or a solid into a liquid.
