I need to balance this.
The _ is where the coefficiants go.
if you are a science wiz, please help:].
_Fe2O3 + _3CO = _2Fe + _3CO2
hope this helps:-)
Fe is +3 going to 0, a gain of 3 e
C is +2 going to +4, a loss of 2 e
2Fe gains 6 e and 3CO loses 6 e
Fe2O3 + 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO2
Fe2O3+CO ->Fe +CO2 for banlance, the coefficient CO is 3 and CO2 is also 3, Fe2O3 is 1, and Fe is 2 Fe2O3+3CO ->2Fe +3CO2
is the balanced equation.
