Balancing Equations:
21. SiCl₄ → Si + 2Cl₂
- Reactants: Si (1), Cl (4)
- Products: Si (1), Cl (4)
Balanced: 1 SiCl₄ → 1 Si + 2 Cl₂
22. 4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O
- Reactants: Na (4), O (2)
- Products: Na (4), O (2)
Balanced: 4 Na + 1 O₂ → 2 Na₂O
Multiple Choice:
23. d. The total number of atoms are equal on both sides
24. a. 2H₂ + N₂ → 2NH₃
