Akia is balancing the equation na + h2o naoh + h2. he tries to find the coefficients that will balance the equation.

how could he find the correct coefficients?

a: by counting up each individual atom and make sure the atom numbers are the same in the reactants and the products
b: by counting up the total atoms and make sure the number of atoms in the reactants is the same as the number of atoms in the products
c: by counting up the total mass of each compound and make sure the reactants are more than the products
d: by counting up the mass of each atom and make sure the reactants are more than the products

Answer;

A: by counting up each individual atom and make sure the atom numbers are the same in the reactants and the products

Explanation;According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants should always be the same as the mass of the products in a chemical equation. Therefore, the number of atoms of each element in a chemical equation should always be the same on both sides of the equation, that is the side of reactants and side of products.Thus, any chemical equation requires balancing to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is equal in both sides of the equation. Balancing is a try and error process that ensures that the law of conservation of mass holds.In this case, the balanced equation would be; 2Na +2H₂O → 2NaOH +H₂

Answer from: skatingflower

Answer : The correct option is, (A) by counting up each individual atom and make sure the atom numbers are the same in the reactants and the products

Explanation :

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass remains conserved that means the total number of atoms present on the reactant side should always be equal to the number of atoms present on the product side.

The given unbalanced reaction is,

$Na+H_2O\rightarrow NaOH+H_2$

The number of atoms of hydrogen are 2 on reactant side and 3 atoms of hydrogen on product side. Thus equation is not balanced.

The balanced reaction will be,

$2Na+2H_2O\rightarrow 2NaOH+H_2$

Hence, the correct option is, (A)
