Write the balanced equation for the oxidation of iron to iron (iii) oxide. will mark brainlest answer

Start with the unbalanced chemical equation

Fe(s)+O2(g)→Fe2O3(s)

The idea behind balancing chemical equations is that the number of atoms an element has on the reactants' side must be equal to the number of atoms it has on the products' side.

These atoms will become a part of different compounds once the reaction is completed, but they must always be in equal numbers on both sides.

So, look at iron first. One atom reacts, but two are produced - notice the 2 subscript iron has in Fe2O3. This means you must double the number of atoms on the reactants' side to reach an equality.2

Fe(s)+O2(g)→Fe2O3(s)

Now look at oxygen. Two atoms react, but three are produced. The trick here is to find a common multiple that will make the number of atoms equal on both sides.

The easiest way to do this is to multiply the atoms that react by 3, which will give you 6 oxygen atoms that react, and the atoms that are produced by 2 - this will get you 6 oxygen atoms produced.

2Fe(s)+3O2(g)→2Fe2O3(s)

However, notice that the iron atoms are unbalanced again. You have 2 that react, but 4 that are produced → multiply the atoms that react by 2 again, which will give you

the food using pesticides in the future will harm you by giving you diseases like cancer or something since they have things that we should not eat in it like chemicals or pesticides. that is why organic food is more expensive because they take the time to make it right and healthy for you to eat.
