What law do you know that all chemical reactions must be balanced what does it mean it must equal?

Law of Equilibrium
Think of a chemical reaction as any math equation like 2 + 8 = 10. This is true since there are 10 units on the left as well as the right.
This is exactly like a chemical equation C + O2 --> CO2
On the left side we have 1 carbon atom and two oxygen atoms. On the right side we have 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms so this is saying that both sides have the same amount of each atom.
If it was unequal it would look like C + O2 --> C2O2
Left side has 1 carbon and two oxygen atoms but the right side has 2 carbon atoms and 2 oxygen atoms. 3 is not equal to 4.

What can be added to a chemical equation to make it balanced?
I don't know yet.
Is a sausage cooking a chemical reaction?
don't know..... personally i think it is because it is a change and a change is a chemical reactions
How many types of chemical reactions are there?
normally there are a few chemical reactions the ones that i know of arecolour changeheat changefizzingbubblingthose are all i can remember sorryActually these aren't types of reactions. These are physical signs that a chemical reaction has taken place.
Why do chemists need to know the factors that affect reaction rates?
It is important to control chemical reactions in industry.
An atom that is balanced or stable has the same number of negative charges as it does positive charges therefore you know that a balanced atom has an equal number of electron and?
protons and electrons .!.
How do organelles know what to do?
My hypothesis is chemical reactions.

What do you know about types of atoms before and after a reaction?
Assuming that you are referring to chemical reactions, we know that atoms are not changed by chemical reactions (except for their oxidation states). That means that all the same types of atoms are present after the reactions as were there before the reactions. The type of an atom is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus.
What are molecules called that control all chemical reactions in the body?
I don't know about controlling ALL chemical reactions in the body, but biological catalysts are known as enzymes.
What subject would you study if you wanted to know more about chemical reactions?
Chemistry
What are the processes so that you can have chemical change?
Simply chemical reactions. Unless you want to know something more specific?

How can one tell if a chemical reaction is balanced?
If it is balanced then the mass (amount) of elements on each side of the arrow will be equal.count the number of molecules of each element on each side of the equation. they need to all be equal.An example:H2 + O2 -> H2O2There are two H's on the left hand side and two on the right hand side, so the H's are balanced.The same is for the O's.==> The equation is balancedAnd remember that the arrow is a yield sign in an equation.
How do you solve a chemical reactions?
It is necessary to balance the relation between reactants and products. You need to know these compounds, chemical formulas, valences.
How do you calculate the masses of chemical reactants and products in a chemical reaction?
The term used to describe the calculation of the quantities of reactants and products in a chemical reaction is stoichemistry. It is the calculation of quantitative (measurable) relationships of the reactants and products in a balanced chemical reaction.
What two types of scientific. knowledge can be expressed. as mathematical equations?
Laws is one... and the other one i dont know... :SLaw and making models.
