2. Magnesium combines with oxygen gas (O2) to produce
magnesium oxide.
Mg + O2 MgO2
3. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the presence of manganese
dioxide produce (MnO2) water and oxygen gas.
Unbalanced Equation
3H2 + N2 → NH3
-The number of element
between reactants and H: 3 H: 3
products are not the N: 2 N: 1
same.
2 Add the coefficient before the element symbol that you
think will balance the number of element.
3 Test and do again step number 1.
Balanced Equation
3H2 + N2 → 2NH3
-The number of element
between reactants and H: 3 x 2= 6 H: 3 x 2 =6
products are now the N: 2 N: 1 x 2 = 2
same.
