Answer:

2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + 3S

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following equation were obtained:

H₂S + SO₂ —> H₂O + S

The equation can be balance as illustrated below:

H₂S + SO₂ —> H₂O + S

There are 2 atoms of O on the left side and 1 atom on the right side it can be balance by writing 2 before H₂O as shown below:

H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + S

There are 2 atoms of H on the left side and 4 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before H₂S as shown below:

2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + S

There are 3 atoms of S on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before S as shown below:

2H₂S + SO₂ —> 2H₂O + 3S

Now, the equation is balanced.!
