Fe2O3 + HCI → FeCI3 + H2O

Fe2O3 + 3 HCI → 2 FeCI3 + H2O

Fe2O3 + 6 HCI → 2 FeCI3 + 3 H2O

Fe2O3 + 3 HCI → 2 FeCI3 + 3 H20

Fe2O3 + 6HCl -> 2FeCl3 + 3 H2O

If you count the number of each elements on both sides, they are equal. If you need me to explain this better, let me know and I would be glad to help
