_ Ti3N + _ MgO → _ Mg3N2 + _ Ti2O
4 Ti3N + 2 MgO → 2 Mg3N2 + 6 Ti2O
To balance the chemical equation:
Ti3N + MgO → Mg3N2 + Ti2O
Step 1: Count the number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation.
On the left side, we have:
3 Ti atoms
1 N atom
1 Mg atom
1 O atom
On the right side, we have:
1 Mg atom
2 N atoms
2 O atoms
2 Ti atoms
Step 2: Balance the Ti atoms by putting a coefficient of 3 in front of Ti2O.
Ti3N + MgO → Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Now, we have:
3 Ti atoms
1 N atom
1 Mg atom
6 O atoms
Step 3: Balance the O atoms by putting a coefficient of 3 in front of MgO.
Ti3N + 3MgO → Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Now, we have:
3 Ti atoms
1 N atom
3 Mg atoms
6 O atoms
Step 4: Finally, balance the N atoms by putting a coefficient of 2 in front of Mg3N2.
Ti3N + 3MgO → 2Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Now, we have a balanced equation with:
3 Ti atoms
2 N atoms
3 Mg atoms
6 O atoms
To balance the chemical equation:
_Ti3N + _MgO → _Mg3N2 + _Ti2O
We need to balance the number of atoms on each side of the equation. Let's start with the titanium (Ti) atoms.
On the left side, we have 3 titanium (Ti) atoms from Ti3N, and on the right side, we have 2 titanium (Ti) atoms from Ti2O. Therefore, we need to put a coefficient of 3 on Ti2O to balance the number of titanium (Ti) atoms.
_Ti3N + _MgO → _Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Next, let's balance the nitrogen (N) atoms.
On the left side, we have 3 nitrogen (N) atoms from Ti3N, and on the right side, we have 2 nitrogen (N) atoms from Mg3N2. Therefore, we need to put a coefficient of 2 on Ti3N to balance the number of nitrogen (N) atoms.
2Ti3N + _MgO → _Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Now, let's balance the magnesium (Mg) atoms.
On the left side, we have 2 magnesium (Mg) atoms from MgO, and on the right side, we have 3 magnesium (Mg) atoms from Mg3N2. Therefore, we need to put a coefficient of 3 on MgO to balance the number of magnesium (Mg) atoms.
2Ti3N + 3MgO → _Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Finally, let's balance the oxygen (O) atoms.
On the left side, we have 3 oxygen (O) atoms from 3MgO, and on the right side, we have 6 oxygen (O) atoms from 3Ti2O. Therefore, we need a coefficient of 2 on Mg3N2 to balance the number of oxygen (O) atoms.
2Ti3N + 3MgO → 2Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
Therefore, the balanced chemical equation is:
2Ti3N + 3MgO → 2Mg3N2 + 3Ti2O
