<P> Since there is one carbon on each side of the arrow, the first atom (carbon) is balanced . </P> <P> Looking at the next atom (hydrogen), the right - hand side has two atoms, while the left - hand side has four . To balance the hydrogens, 2 goes in front of the H O, which yields: </P> <Dl> <Dd> 1 CH + O → CO + 2 H O </Dd> </Dl> <Dd> 1 CH + O → CO + 2 H O </Dd>
