can anyone help balencing equations in the comments
hold on i meesed up

@Michele_Laino
is your reaction, like this: \[\Large {\text{Zn + H}}{{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}} \to {\text{Zn}}\left( {{\text{C}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{COOH}}} \right){\text{ + }}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\]
\[Zn+HC _{4}H _{3}O _{2}\rightarrow ZN(cH _{3}Coo)_{2}+H _{2}\]
so no H after Coo
sorry, I understand: \[\Large {\text{Zn + H}}{{\text{C}}_{\text{4}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}} \to {\text{Zn}}{\left( {{\text{C}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{COO}}} \right)_{\text{2}}}{\text{ + }}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\]
ok yes that is it
please wait I'm working on your question...
ok thanks
I'm very sorry, I don't know how to balance such chemical reaction
@chmvijay please can you help here?
@jigglypuff314 please can you help here?
to my knowledge on how to balance equations, I don't believe it is possible... on the left you have 1 Zn 4 H 4 C 2 O and on the right you have 1 Zn 8 H 4 C 4 O because of how they are connected to each other, no matter what coefficients you try to add, it won't even out :-/ I can't help, sorry.
wait... please recheck that is the correct equation? \[\Large {\text{Zn + H}}{{\text{C}}_{\text{4}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}} \to {\text{Zn}}{\left( {{\text{C}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{COO}}} \right)_{\text{2}}}{\text{ + }}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\]
wait it is not that first 4 is suppose to be a 2
