Balancing equations involve putting coefficients in front of substances to make sure that the same number of each element is found on both sides of the equation. Always make sure that your formulas are written out correctly.

Yesterday in the lab, we burned magnesium in the air and made the compound magnesium nitride. If I add water to this magnesium nitride, it will produce magnesium hydroxide and ammonia (NH3). Write out the formulas and balance this equation. Place the coefficients in the blanks. Include "1"s in your answer (even though we don't write them on paper).

magnesium nitride + water → magnesium hydroxide + ammonia
