Explicación
To balance the chemical equation, we need to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. The equation given is:
Let's denote the coefficients (the numbers in front of the compounds) as
,
,
, and
respectively. The equation becomes:
Now, we will balance the equation by adjusting these coefficients:1. Balance the carbon (C) atoms: Since there is one carbon atom on both sides, we can set
.2. Balance the bromine (Br) atoms: There are 2 bromine atoms in
and 4 bromine atoms in
. Therefore, we need 2 molecules of
to balance the bromine atoms, so
.3. Balance the fluorine (F) atoms: There are 4 fluorine atoms in
and 2 fluorine atoms in
. Therefore, we need 2 molecules of
to balance the fluorine atoms, so
.Now we have:
Since
, we can choose
to simplify the coefficients. Therefore, the balanced equation is:
