Answer:

The balanced equation is given below:

4Cr + 3O₂ —> 2Cr₂O₃

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above the following equation was obtained

4Cr + 3O₂ —> Cr₂O₃

The equation can be balance as illustrated below:

4Cr + 3O₂ —> Cr₂O₃

There are 4 atoms of Cr on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before Cr₂O₃ as shown below:

4Cr + 3O₂ —> 2Cr₂O₃

Now the equation is balanced.
