Is the following chemical equation balanced?

2na + 2h2o ⇒ 2naoh + h2

yes
no

Given information:

2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2

To determine:

If the above equation is balanced

Explanation:

For an equation to be balanced the number of atoms on the reactants must be equal to the number of atoms on the products

For the given reaction:

Reactants                            Products

Na = 2 atoms                       Na = 2 atoms

H = 4 atoms                          H = 4 atoms

O = 2 atoms                          O = 2 atoms

Ans: Since there are equal number of Na, H and O atoms on the reactant and product side, the equation is balanced.
