Answer: The balanced equation is [tex]AlCl_{3} + 3Cs \rightarrow 3CsCl + Al[/tex]
Explanation:
A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side is called a balanced chemical equation.
For example, [tex]AlCl_{3} + Cs \rightarrow CsCl + Al[/tex]
Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.
- Al = 1
- Cl = 3
- Cs = 1
Number of atoms on product side are as follows.
- Al = 1
- Cl = 1
- Cs = 1
To balance this equation, multiply Cs by 3 on reactant side and multiply CsCl by 3 on product side.
Hence, now the equation will be as follows.
[tex]AlCl_{3} + 3Cs \rightarrow 3CsCl + Al[/tex]
Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.
- Al = 1
- Cl = 3
- Cs = 3
Number of atoms on product side are as follows.
- Al = 1
- Cl = 3
- Cs = 3
Thus, we can conclude that this equation is balanced.
