ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
Balanced chemical equations
A chemical reaction can be represented using a chemical equation that gives the identity of all the reactants and products of the reaction. It also specifies the reaction condition and uses the chemical formulae of the species.
If the number of atoms of all the elements on the reactant side is equal to that on the product side, the chemical equation is balanced. A balanced chemical equation obeys the law of conservation of mass and can be used to calculate the relative amounts of reactants and products of a reaction.
The coefficients of the reactants and products of a chemical reaction in a balanced equation are called stoichiometric coefficients and give the number of moles of each species in the reaction.
