jfraser · Answer

turn those words into proper formulas

sulfur dioxide:

Bromine:

water:

hydrogen bromide:

sulfuric acid: (given) H2SO4

Like this :

 SO2 + Br + H2O ---->  HBr + H2SO4

jfraser · Answer

almost. Bromine is a diatomic molecule, so it's Br2, not just Br.

Your balancing will have to change, but it's close

anonymous · Answer

How about this ?
SO2 + Br2 + 2 H2O = 2 HBr + H2SO4
