A patient is required to take an IV drug for cancer treatment. The required dosage is 5.0 mg drug her lb patient body weight every day. Each of the bags of the drug contains 250 mg drug. If you are treating a 150 lb patient, How many bags of the drug are needed each day.

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !

the temperature of the gas, in k, not celsius.
