is 2NaOH + H2 balanced?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

...You need a full chemical reaction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sooooo........no?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Your question is incomplete. We need the full equation. This is only one side of the equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2Na + 2H2O ---> 2NaOH + H2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the compleat equation

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

There ya go. It's not balanced The same number of H, O, and Na have to be on both the left and right sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok how about this one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2Al + 3FeO ---> Al2O3 + 3Fe

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

...What do you think? How many Al, Fe, O are on both sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think that it is balansed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it right?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

How do you know it's balanced?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because thet is an equal amount of AL and FE

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

If you know what you're doing, then balance the first equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i dont know what i am doing

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

You said it yourself. The elements are equal on both sides. How did you realize that?

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

Do the same for the first equation. I'm not giving you the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because i looked

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooooooooooo ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANK YOU SO MUCH

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):

What did you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (ipwnbunnies):
