This is a double replacement reaction.
First figure out what the product is, and then work from there.

Actually brittykitty, it's not, as one must determine the final product, and then balance from there.

No I didn't. When I was learning to balance that confused the crap out of me. What exactly I'm balancing, am I balancing two of the elements are similar or not... anyway yea lol

Which clearly this person didn't know. Not to balance if the chemicals arnt similar, just put them together
