What is the differences between subscripts and coefficients?
A coefficient is the number that goes before an element when your balancing the equation. And a subscript is the number after the element. Subscripts are not changed when you balance the equation.
What is the difference between a subscript and coefficiant?
A coefficient is the number that goes before an element when your balancing the equation. And a subscript is the number after the element. Subscripts are not changed when you balance the equation.
How does a subscript in a chemical formula affect balancing chemical equation?
How does a subscript affect the element just before it?
What is the first step in balancing equations?
Check the total number of atoms for each element. When balanced, there will be the same number of atoms for each element on each side of the equation. If this is already the case, no balancing is required.If the number is not the same, the first balancing to be done is for the most complex molecules, the ones with the most elements and the most atoms of each element. These will ordinarily be the hardest to balance, and it is easier to change the simpler molecules, and the single elements, once these are done.

What is a balancing equation?
a balance equation when it come to bio is that the input be exactly equal to the output. this will make the organism balanced with the environment it is in like a regulator fish in water. input=output. in chemistry: A balanced equation is used for chemical reactions. When the number of moles of reactants is equal to the number of moles of products, the equation is considered balanced. Search wikipedia for chemical equation for a step by step tutorial on how to balance chemical reaction equations.
What is the balance equation of Di phosphorus trioxide formed by direct combination of its element?
What is the balanced equation for CH3CHO when completely oxdized
Explain what is meant by a chemical equation being balanced?
Placing coefficients in front of compounds or elements or poly-atomic ions to balance the number of atoms of different elements between the reactants side and the products side. Ex. CH4 + 2 O2 CO2 + 2 H2O
How do you know when you have a balance equation in chemistry?
Same number of each kind of element to the left and right of the arrow.
What is the chemical equation for MnO2?
MnO2 is the chemical formula(there is no equation). The compound is called manganese oxide and manganese(IV) oxide by IUPAC. Wikipedia calls it manganese dioxide.
What is the first step in solving a problem in stoichiometry?
Balance the number of atoms for each element on both sides of a chemical equation
Why chemical equation have to be balance?
As no chemical equations create or destroy new molecules, both sides need to be balanced to show the same amount of each element is on either side of the equation.
