Make sure that the number of atoms on the left side of the equation is the same as the number of atoms on the right side.
For example: -
H + O2 --> H2O This is not a balanced equation because there is more oxygen and less hydrogen on the left side of the equation then is needed on the right side.
4H + O2 --> 2H2O This equation is balanced because there is 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation.

An equation is balanced when the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the equation. This means that the total mass and charge is conserved. You can check if an equation is balanced by counting the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation and adjusting coefficients as needed.
Pretty much. To make sure an equation is balanced you'll want to make sure there are the same number of each atom on each side of the equation. So: If there are 5 H's that are reactants, make sure there are 5 H's that are products.
Equations are oftentimes used to represent chemical reactions. They have to be in the lowest form for it to be considered a balanced equation.
No, the chemical equation is not balanced. The correct balanced equation is 2SO2 + O2 → 2SO3.
2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O2 Check out Wikipedia's entry on Hydrogen Peroxide
A balanced chemical equation has correct placed coefficients and a representative chemical equation need these coefficients.
No, the equation is not balanced. The balanced equation is 2CaSO3 → CaO + SO2 + O2.
No, the balanced equation is 6Ca + 3O2 ---> 6CaO. The product, calcium oxide, is CaO and not CaO2.
Balanced Chemical equation
The balanced equation for the combustion of magnesium is 2Mg + O2 -> 2MgO.
