PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I need help balancing this chemical equation :D

____ AgNO3 + ____ZnCl2 --------> ____Zn(NO3)2 + ___AgCl2

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! :D LOVE YOU TO PLUTO AND BACK :D <33

2AgNO3(aq)+ ZnCl2(aq)---> Zn(NO3)2(aq)+2 AgCl(s)

silver chloride is AgCl

In the activity series of metals, if a metal name appears above another, it can replace it in a single replacement reaction.

Go with what Darrell said about reb1240

The other person that wrote Ag(NO3)2? Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

This is what you need to balance:

AgNO3 + ZnCl2 --------> Zn(NO3)2 + AgCl

I'd go with @reb1240's suggestion... Ag doesn't naturally exist with a +2 charge.

Ag(NO3)2 + ZnCl2 → Zn(NO3)2 + AgCl2

It is AgCl, not AgCl2. That is your headache. After that it is easy.
