Explanation:
A balanced equation is defined as the equation that has same number of atoms on both reactant and product side.
For example, [tex]FeCl_{3} + Na_{2}CO_{3} \rightarrow Fe_{2}(CO_{3})_{3} + NaCl[/tex]
Number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.
Fe = 1
Cl = 3
Na = 2
[tex]CO_{3}[/tex] = 1
Number of atoms on product side are as follows.
Fe = 2
Cl = 1
Na = 1
[tex]CO_{3}[/tex] = 3
Therefore, balance the chemical reaction equation by multiplying [tex]FeCl_{3}[/tex] by 2 and NaCl by 3 on reactant side. Whereas multiply [tex]Fe_{2}(CO_{3})_{3}[/tex] by 1 and NaCl by 6 on product side as follows.
Thus, the balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.
[tex]2FeCl_{3} + 3Na_{2}CO_{3} \rightarrow Fe_{2}(CO_{3})_{3} + 6NaCl[/tex]
