na2s + hcl _____ nacl + h2s Which of these would represent the coefficients needed to balance this equation? A) 1, 1, 1, 1 B) 1, 2, 2, 1 C) 2, 1, 1, 2 D) 2, 2, 2, 2

Respuesta :

Answer:

B) 1, 2, 2, 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In given equation:

Left side:                                Right Side:

  2 Na                                          1 Na

  1 S                                              1 S

  1 H                                             2 H

  1 Cl                                             1 Cl

To equal the number of Na and H atoms on both sides, HCl and NaCl will have a coefficient of 2 to balance the equation while Na₂S and H₂S will have a coefficient of 1.

1 Na₂S + 2 HCl ⇒ 2 NaCl + 1 H₂S
