What is wrong with how this student balanced the equation?

Original equation: Ag + O_{2 --->} Ag₂O

Solution: Ag + O_{2 --->} 2Ag₂O

• They changed the molecular structure of the products/reactants.

• The silver (Ag) still isn't balanced.

• The oxygen (O) still isn't balanced.

• They left out the reactants.
