It is asking to balance the equation but it also provides the
correct stoichiometry of the reaction so im not sure if it is
already balanced or if the drops should be included in the
equation? thank you!

Write the chemical equation for the reaction you observed between sodium carbonate and calcium chloride. Don't forget to include physical states for all reactants and products, balance the reaction, and indicate the color of the precipitate under its formula in the reaction.
Microscale Gravimetric Analysis of Calcium Carbonate. Drops of CaCl2: 11 Drops of Na2CO3: 15 Precipitate color: white
In this experiment, you'll mix calcium chloride dihydrate and sodium carbonate to produce a precipitate (solid) of calcium carbonate and sodium chloride that remains in solution. Equation [5] shows the correct stoichiometry of the reaction. CaCl2•2H20(s) + Na2CO3(aq) → CaCO3(s) + 2NaCl(aq) + 2H2O(1)
