Balancing Chemical Equations
Рет қаралды 5,465
8 күн бұрынThe goal of balancing chemical equations is to have an equal number of elements on both sides of the reaction arrow.
Start by counting atoms in this order, metals ,nonmetals, other like hydrogen.
You can only use coefficients in order to balance the equation.

WHY THE HELL didn't my chemistry teacher show us how to do it this way?

Here's how I prefer: Assign a lowercase letter as the coefficient for each term: a Zn + b HCl -> c ZnCl2 + d H2 Assume a = 1. Construct system of equations: Zn: a = c H: b = 2*d Cl: b = 2*c Solve system with algebra: a = 1, b=2, c = 1, d=1 Had we produced a fraction, multiply until whole. Not needed here, so the solution is: Zn + 2 HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2

Wow this one was really hard I would have never thought to put a 2 infront of the HCl
