Question
**Balancing Chemical Equations**

Balance the following chemical equation:

\[ \text{C}_2\text{H}_3\text{Cl} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{HCl} \]

Assume the coefficient of \(\text{HCl}\) is 2. What is the balanced equation?

\[ \Box \, \text{C}_2\text{H}_3\text{Cl} + \Box \, \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \Box \, \text{CO}_2 + \Box \, \text{H}_2\text{O} + 2\text{HCl} \]

In this diagram, you are prompted to fill in the boxes with the appropriate coefficients to balance the chemical equation, given that the coefficient for \(\text{HCl}\) is 2.
