Write the balanced equation for the following by inserting the correct coefficients in the blanks.

Balance each of the following neutralization equations:a. HCl(aq) + Mg(OH)₂(s) → H₂O(l) + MgCl(aq)

Balance each of the following neutralization equations:a. HNO₃(aq) + Ba(OH)₂(s) → H₂O(l) + Ba(NO₃)₂(aq)

High temperature combustion processes, such as in combustion engines and coal-fired power plants, can result in the reaction of nitrogen and sulfur with oxygen to form nitrogen oxides (NO𝓍) and sulfur oxides (SO𝓍), where x can vary. These NO𝓍 and SO𝓍 compounds subsequently undergo further reaction in the atmosphere to create acidic compounds that contribute to acid rain. a. Do some research to determine the common products that are formed (i.e., what are the values of x) for the reactions of N and S with oxygen. Write balanced equations for these reactions.

Cobalt(II) chloride, a blue solid, can absorb water from the air to form cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate, a pink solid. The equilibrium is so sensitive to moisture in the air that CoCl₂ is used as a humidity indicator.Write a balanced equation for the equilibrium. Be sure to include water as a reactant to produce the hexahydrate.

What is meant by the term 'balanced equation'?

Why is it not possible to balance an equation by changing the subscript on a substance, say from H₂O to H₂O₂?

Which of the following equations are balanced? Balance those that need it.a. CaC₂+2 H₂O→Ca(OH)₂+C₂H₂ b. C₂H₈N₂+2 N₂O₄→2 N₂+2 CO₂+4 H₂Oc. 3 MgO +2 Fe→Fe₂O₃+3 Mgd. N₂O→N₂+O₂
