Answer:

P4+ 3O2 --->2P2O3

Step-by-step explanation:

left side:

  • P=4
  • O=2

right side :

  • P=2
  • O=3

to balance:

  1. since there is 4 P at left , thus right side need 4P :P2×2 = 2P2 , now u get 4 P at the right and left
  2. since at right , P2O3 has been ×2 , O2 now has 6 , thus left side need 6 O too :O2×3= 3O2 , now you get 6 O at the left and right
