Answer:

ZnO + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂O

Explanation:

The unbalanced reaction between zinc oxide (ZnO) and dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) is:

  • ZnO + HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂O

Now we'll procede to balance the equation:

  • There is 1 Cl atom on the left side and 2 on the right, so we change that:
  • ZnO + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂O

The number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides, so the equation is now balanced.
