The following reaction is balanced: 2Al2O3 → 4Al + 3O2 True False

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Looking at the product side: 4Al + 2O3 - that means there's (2x2=4) Al atoms and (2x3=6) O atoms. its true

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd say this is chemisty. ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yea it is chemistry :D

OpenStudy (shane_b):

How exactly is it balanced? On the left you have 2AL atoms and on the right you have 4.

I read it as: \[2Al2O_3\]but I suppose it's meant to be \[2Al_2O_3\]...which is balanced.
