To balance a chemical equation, you can change the coefficients (number of molecules). Remember: You cannot change the subscripts.

When we balance an equation we change the number of atoms on one or both sides of the equation by means of simple mathematical calculation. That is, we change the number of molecules of one or more reactants or products. When the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the equation, and cannot be reduced equally, the balancing process is complete.
