How to Balance Al + Cl2 = AlCl3

To balance Al + Cl2 → AlCl3 you'll need to be sure to count all of Aland Cl atoms on each side of the chemical equation.  Visit https://www.Breslyn.org for video guides on balancing equations and more!

 Once you know how many of each type of atom you have you can only change the coefficients (the numbers in front of atoms or compounds) in order to balance the equation.
