When gasses are under the same conditions,
the volume relationships between gasses,
give the coefficients of the balanced equation.
"1 liter of chlorine gas (Cl2) with 3 liters of fluorine
gas (F2) yields 2 liters of a gaseous product"
1Cl2(g) + 3F2(aq) ---> 2product
------------------
reactant atoms:
1Cl2 + 3F2 = 2Cl + 6F
product has the same number
of atoms as in the reactants:
1product = 2Cl + 6F
==>
2product = 2(Cl + F3) = 2ClF3
------------------
Balanced equation becomes:
1Cl2(g) + 3F2(aq) ---> 2ClF3
*** Answer: The formula of the product is ClF3 ***
