Interpretation:
The given chemical equation needs to be balanced.
Concept introduction:
For balancing an equation first write the skeleton equation. After that count the atoms of both side, count each polyatomic ion as a single element. Find the correct coefficient and placed them in front of the atoms and checked both side element equal or not.
Answer to Problem 54SSC
The complete and balance equation is
Explanation of Solution
Now, write the skeleton equations for
In reactant side number of C is 1, O is 2, H is 1 and Cl atom is 1 while in product side number of C is 1, Cl is 4, H is 2 and oxygen is 1. To balance H and Cl in both sides give coefficient 4 to
The complete and balance equation is
