Yes, I need your help I don't know how to answer this equation..
I heard that you need help?
Magnesium + Nitrogen gas Magnesium Nitride
Step 1: Convert the given problem into a word equation
Mg(s) + N2(g) Mg3N2(s)
Magnesium + Nitrogen gas Magnesium Nitride
Step 2: Convert the word equation into a chemical equation.Note: Lookout for diatomic substances like nitrogen
3Mg(s) + N2(g) Mg3N2(s)
Mg(s) + N2(g) Mg3N2(s)
Magnesium + Nitrogen gas Magnesium Nitride
Step 3: Balance the chemical equation by adding coefficients on both sides so that both sides have the same number of atoms.This satisfy the law of conservation of matter
