Question

I need help with my worksheet

Balance the equation

__Nal +__ F = ___NaF + __l
2 2

Answer 1

2NaI + F₂ → 2NaF + I₂

Step-by-step explanation:

Chemical equation:

NaI + F₂ → NaF + I₂

Balanced chemical equation:

2NaI + F₂ → 2NaF + I₂

The given reaction is single replacement reaction.

Step 1:

NaI + F₂ → NaF + I₂

left hand side Right hand side

Na = 1 Na = 1

I = I I = 2

F = 2 F = 1

Step 2:

2NaI + F₂ → NaF + I₂

left hand side Right hand side

Na = 2 Na = 1

I = 2 I = 2

F = 2 F = 1

Step 3:

2NaI + F₂ → 2NaF + I₂

left hand side Right hand side

Na = 2 Na = 2

I = 2 I = 2

F = 2 F = 2
