    The left side of the equation contains \\(2\\text{Al}(\\text{OH})_3\\) and \\(3\\text{H}_2\\text{SO}_4\\). Each aluminum hydroxide has 3 oxygen atoms and there are 2 molecules, so that makes 6 oxygen atoms. Each sulfuric acid has 4 oxygens and there are 3 molecules, so that makes 12 oxygen atoms. Therefore, in total, there are 18 oxygen atoms on the left side of the equation.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
