Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the Following Correctly Balances this Equation? ____ H2+ ____ Cl2
A
2H2 + Cl2
B
H2+Cl2
C
3H2 + 3Cl2
D
H + Cl
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Therefore, the balanced chemical equation for the given reaction is as follows: H 2 Hydrogen + Cl 2 Chlorine → 2 HCl Hydrochloric acid. Q.

Detailed explanation-2: -It is the product. One molecule of hydrogen is reacting with one molecule of chlorine to form two molecules of hydrochloric acid.

Detailed explanation-3: -No, the given chemical equation is unbalanced. The given equation for the formation of water (H₂O) from hydrogen (H₂) gas and oxygen (O₂) gas is shown below. The number of atoms of each type on LHS and RHS of equation (1) is represented in the table given below.

Detailed explanation-4: -On the equation of the product side, we may easily write the coefficient 2 before the HCl to make the equation balanced, as seen here: H2(g)+Cl2(g)→2HCl(g). This is the balanced equation.
