Chemical Equations HELP ASAP PLZ!

Post by monkey »

How would you write out this equation:
Scandium Oxalate + Potassium Nitrite = Scandium Nitrite+ Potassium Oxalate

I need to figure out how to write the chemical equation. Here is what I have, but I believe it's wrong:

Sc2(C2O4)3 + KNO2 = Sc(NO2)3 + K2C2O4

It's all right, just not balanced, Here is the balanced one:
Sc2(C2O4)3 + 6 KNO2 = 2 Sc(NO2)3 + 3 K2C2O4
