To balance the chemical reaction \( \text{Ti}_3\text{N} + \text{MgO} \rightarrow \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + \text{Ti}_2\text{O} \), we will need to ensure that there are equal numbers of each type of atom on both sides of the equation.
Let's balance it step by step.
1. **Identify the unbalanced equation:**
\[
\text{Ti}_3\text{N} + \text{MgO} \rightarrow \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + \text{Ti}_2\text{O}
\]
2. **Count the atoms of each element on both sides:**
- Left: 3 Ti, 1 N, 1 Mg, 1 O
- Right: 2 Ti, 2 N, 3 Mg, 1 O
3. **Start with Titania (Ti):**
Since we have 3 Ti on the left and 2 on the right, we can place a coefficient of 2 in front of \( \text{Ti}_2\text{O} \) on the right:
\[
\text{Ti}_3\text{N} + \text{MgO} \rightarrow \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + 2 \text{Ti}_2\text{O}
\]
4. **After that, balance the amount of nitrogen (N):**
We have 1 N on the left and 2 N (from \( \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 \)) on the right. So we place a coefficient of 2 in front of \( \text{Ti}_3\text{N} \):
\[
2 \text{Ti}_3\text{N} + \text{MgO} \rightarrow \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + 2 \text{Ti}_2\text{O}
\]
5. **Update the atom count:**
- Left: 6 Ti, 2 N, 1 Mg, 1 O (after adjusting for Ti)
- Right: 2 Ti, 2 N, 3 Mg, 2 O (after adjusting for Ti)
6. **Now, balance the Mg and O atoms:**
We have 6 Ti on the left and 2 on the right. We notice this doesn’t help since we began with a different assumption. So let's adjust the initial coefficient on MgO to balance it accurately.
Let’s try placing 3 in front of \( \text{MgO} \):
\[
2 \text{Ti}_3\text{N} + 3 \text{MgO} \rightarrow \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + 2 \text{Ti}_2\text{O}
\]
7. **Finally, recount atoms:**
- Left: 6 Ti, 2 N, 3 Mg, 3 O
- Right: 6 Ti, 2 N, 3 Mg, 3 O
Now both sides match!
### Summary of Coefficients:
- In front of \( \text{Ti}_3\text{N} \): 2
- In front of \( \text{MgO} \): 3
- In front of \( \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 \): 1 (not shown)
- In front of \( \text{Ti}_2\text{O} \): 2
### Final balanced equation:
\[
2 \text{Ti}_3\text{N} + 3 \text{MgO} \rightarrow 1 \text{Mg}_3\text{N}_2 + 2 \text{Ti}_2\text{O}
\]
