Solid potassium chloride is obtained by the reaction of chlorine gas and solid potassium . write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.

Explanation:

A chemical equation that represents equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side is known as a balanced chemical equation.

For example, when chlorine gas reacts with solid potassium then a synthesis reaction takes place which leads to the formation of solid potassium chloride.

The reaction equation will be as follows.

Number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

Cl = 2

K = 1

Number of atoms of product side are as follows.

Cl = 1

K = 1

Hence, to balance this chemical equation, multiply K on reactant side by 2 and multiply KCl by 2 on product side.

Therefore, the balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.
