Writing and Balancing Chemicak Equation

The document discusses the steps to write and balance chemical equations: 1. Identify the reactants and products in the chemical reaction. 2. Write the chemical formulas of the reactants and products and indicate their physical states. 3. Use a table to check that the number of atoms of each element is balanced between reactants and products, and add coefficients as needed. 4. The balanced chemical equation should satisfy the law of conservation of mass, with the same number of atoms of each element on both sides.

WRITING and
BALANCING CHEMICAL
EQUATION

compounds.
1. Sodium chloride-

the following compounds.
1. Sodium chloride- NaCl
2. Carbon dioxide-CO2
3. Nitrogen dioxide-No2
4. Hydrochloric acid- HCl
5. Calcium oxide- CaO
Law of Conservation of Mass states
that:

The mass of the substance does not


change in a chemical reaction.
It means that the mass of the
reactant(s) is equal to the mass of the
product(s).
Definition
Chemical is a way of
formula-
expressing information about the
proportions of atoms that
constitute a
particular chemicalcompound,
using a single line
of chemical element symbols,
Chemical equations- the symbolic
representation of a chemical reaction in the form of
symbols and formulae, wherein the reactant
entities are given on the left-hand side and
the product entities on the right-hand side. The
coefficients next to the symbols and formulae of
entities are the absolute values of
the stoichiometric numbers. The first chemical
equation was diagrammed by Jean Beguin in 1615.
REACTANT-
A substance that is altered or incorporated into
another substance in a chemical reaction,
Especially a directly reacting
substance present at the initiation of the reaction
Products-are the species formed from
chemical reactions. During a chemical reaction
reactants are transformed into products after
passing through a high energy transition state.
Game: MATCH TAYO
write the following chemical reactions:

1.Carbon combined with oxygen gas


will yield carbon dioxide gas
2.Hydrogen that reacts with Oxygen
gas will form water
3.Molecules of acetylene gas will
react with molecules of oxygen gas to
produce molecules of carbon dioxide
gas and water vapor.
1.C2H2 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

2. C2H2(g) + O2(g) → CO2(g) + H2O(g)

3. C2H2 (g) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + H2O (g)


Rules in writing and balancing chemical
equation.
 Identify the reactants and the products. C2H2 + O2 → CO2 +
H2O
 Indicate the states of the substances by placing their symbols
on the right side of the substances. C2H2(g) + O2(g) → CO2(g) +
H2O(g)
 Check the equation if it conforms with the Law of
Conservation of Mass. If not, change the number of molecules
of the substance in the equation by writing a coefficient. It is
convenient to make a table containing the number of atoms
of each element.
__C2H2 (g) + __O2 (g) → __CO2 (g) + __H2O (g)

Coefficient

Reactant(s) Kind of Atom Product(s)


4 C 4

10 O 10

4 H 4
Final Answer: 2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) → 4CO2(g) + 2H2O(g)

Note: Do not change the subscript of the


element or compound because elements that
combine have definite composition and fixed
proportion of elements by mass.
Activity

Groupings of the Learners(4 groups)


Each group will have cards and a board where
they can place their answers in the activity.
The first group to finish will read their answer in
front while holding the board.
The first group to get three correct answers wins
the game.
1. Aqueous aluminum hydroxide decomposes to
form solid aluminum oxide and liquid water.
2. Aqueous aluminum nitrate reacts with aqueous sodium
hydroxide to form aqueous aluminum hydroxide and
aqueous sodium nitrate.
3. Iron reacts with sulfuric acid to produce iron (III) sulfate
and hydrogen gas.

dioxide and sulfur dioxide.
