Balancing Chemical Equations Hoooray
One or more beginning REACTANTS combine to form one or more ending PRODUCTS. What are chemical reactions?
Write correct formulas for reactants (place on the left) • Separate reactants with a plus sign(s) (+) • Place a yield (arrow) after the last reactant • Write correct formulas for products (place on right) • Separate products with a plus sign(s) (+) WRITING AN EQUATION FOR A CHEMICAL REACTION
Law of Conservation of Matter: Matter cannot be created or destroyed, BUT it may be rearranged into different types of particles. Why does this matter???? I’m glad you asked!!!!!!!!! LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MATTER
A balanced equation has the same number of atoms of each element on the reactant and the product side • COEFFICIENTS (big numbers in front of a formula) are used to balance an equation • The COEFFICIENT applies to every element in a compound • 2H2 (g) + O2 (g) 2H20 (g) • Do not change subscripts to balance an equation HOW TO BALANCE AN EQUATION
