Answer:

The correct answer option is D. 8
CO_2 + 3
S_8
---> 8
CS_2 + 8
SO_2

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation for any chemical reaction is said to be a balanced equation if the total number of atoms for each element used in the reaction are equal on both sides of the equation i.e. in the reactants and in the product(s).

Here, only option D is a balanced equation as there are 8 Carbon atoms, 16 Oxygen atoms and 24 Sulfur atoms on each side of the equation.

8
CO_2 + 3
S_8
---> 8
CS_2 + 8
SO_2
