Answer:
4Al (s) + 3O₂ (g) → 2Al₂O₃
General Formulas and Concepts:
Chemistry - Reactions
- Reaction Prediction
- Balancing RxN's
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define RxN
Al (s) + O₂ (g) → Al₂O₃
Step 2: Balance RxN
4Al (s) + 3O₂ (g) → 2Al₂O₃
- Need to balance the amount of oxygens on both sides
- If we balance the oxygens, the aluminums will also have to be rebalanced
