Question

Help with balancing this chemical equation;

__H2S(g) + __O2(g) --> __SO2(g) + __H2O(l)

Reactants -

Hydrogen 2, Sulfur 1, Oxygen 2.

Products -

Hydrogen 2, Sulfur 1, Oxygen 3

The "__" spaces in the equation are fill in the blank spots to put the coefficients.

WILL GIVE MEDAL! Thanks ~

Answer 1

I probably should have posted this in physics. sorry.

Answer 2

how many o atoms are there?

Answer 3

I just stated above xD

In order to balance the equation you have to find out the # of atoms of each element in both the reactants side (before the arrow) and in the products side (after the arrow)

Reactants
--------
Hydrogen 2
Sulfur 1
Oxygen 2

Products
-------
Hydrogen 2
Sulfur 1
Oxygen 3

Answer 4

so multilply O2 with 3 and H2O with 2

Answer 5

What about the coefficients of H2S and SO2?
