balanceable

/bˈælænsəbəl/ adj

Capable of being balanced.

Word Origin From Late Latin bilancia, literally 'having two scale pans'—bi- 'two' + lanx 'dish, scale'. So balanceable means 'able to be balanced'. The word balance came into English via Old French, and the -able suffix (from Latin -abilis) makes it 'capable of'. Related words: counterbalance, overbalance.
