4 , 9 , 2

hope this helps!

Answer : The coefficients of reactant \(I_2\) and \(O_2\) are 4 and 9.

The coefficients of product \(I_4O_9\) is 2.

Explanation :

The balanced chemical equation will be,

\(4I_2+9O_2\rightarrow 2I_4O_9\)

By the stoichiometry, 4 moles of \(I_2\) react with 9 moles of \(O_2\) to give 2 moles of \(I_4O_9\).

In the given balanced equation, \(I_2\) and \(O_2\) are the reactants and \(I_4O_9\) is the product.

The coefficients of reactant \(I_2\) and \(O_2\) are 4 and 9.

The coefficients of product \(I_4O_9\) is 2.
