The correct Answer is:
To determine which equation is correctly balanced, we need to compare the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation. A balanced equation has the same number of each type of atom on both the reactant (left-hand side, LHS) and product (right-hand side, RHS) sides. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Equations**: List the equations provided in the question. For the sake of this solution, let's assume the equations are: - (i) \( \text{N}_2 + \text{A} \rightarrow \text{A} + \text{O}_2 \) - (ii) \( 2 \text{N}_2 + 2 \text{A} \rightarrow 2 \text{O} + 2 \text{A} \) - (iii) \( 2 \text{Al} + 6 \text{H}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{Al} + 3 \text{O}_2 \) - (iv) \( 2 \text{N}_2 + 5 \text{O} \rightarrow 4 \text{O} \) - (v) \( 2 \text{N}_2 + 3 \text{O} \rightarrow 4 \text{O} \) 2. **Count Atoms in Each Equation**: - For equation (i): - LHS: 2 N, 1 A, 2 O - RHS: 1 A, 2 O - Not balanced. - For equation (ii): - LHS: 4 N, 2 A - RHS: 2 O, 2 A - Not balanced (O is not equal). - For equation (iii): - LHS: 2 Al, 6 H - RHS: 2 Al, 6 H - Balanced. - For equation (iv): - LHS: 4 N, 5 O - RHS: 4 O - Not balanced. - For equation (v): - LHS: 4 N, 3 O - RHS: 4 O - Not balanced. 3. **Determine the Correctly Balanced Equation**: - From the analysis, equation (iii) \( 2 \text{Al} + 6 \text{H}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{Al} + 3 \text{O}_2 \) is the only equation that is balanced. ### Conclusion: The correctly balanced equation is \( 2 \text{Al} + 6 \text{H}_2 \rightarrow 2 \text{Al} + 3 \text{O}_2 \).
