Answer:

2Al(s) + 3Br₂(l) --> 2AlBr₃(s)

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol for solid Aluminium is - Al(s)

The symbol for liquid bromine is Br(l)

The reaction between solid aluminium and liquid bromine is;

Al(s) + Br₂(l) --> AlBr₃(s)

The balanced equation is given as;

2Al(s) + 3Br₂(l) --> 2AlBr₃(s)
