Balance Equations Create a flowchart describing how to balance a chemical equation.
Interpretation:
The method to balance a chemical equation needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Chemical equation is the symbolic description of a chemical reaction that products and reactants are indicating in terms of their chemical formula.
Answer to Problem 136A
The flowchart that describes how to balance a chemical equation is as follows:
Explanation of Solution
The way that describes how to balance a chemical equation is as follows:
- First write a skeleton equation.
- Count the atoms of reactant and product side.
- Add coefficient so that the number of elements of reactant and product side is same.
- To lowest possible integer ratio reduce coefficient.
- Then check the result.
