The Law of Conservation of Mass applies.
For any reaction
A + B = C + D
The total mass of 'A' & 'B' must equal the total mass of 'C' & 'D'.
Numerically, 20g(A) + 25g(B) = 45 g
So the total of 'C; & 'D; must equal 45g. However, individually 'C' may be 30 g & 'D' 15g = So 30g + 15 g = 45 g as before.
Now going into a reaction equation.
H2SO4 + 2NaOH = NaSO4 + H2O
This equation in incorrect , because you have lost mass on the right hand side These is 1 x sodium (Na) and 1 x water (H2O) missing, So mass is NOT conserved.
The BALANCED equation is
H2SO4 + 2NaOH = Na2SO4 + 2H2O
The numbers of each type of atom are the samer on both sides of the equation ,so since atoms have mass, the balanced equation conserves mass.
Hope that helps!!!!
I think that it has to do with the law of conservation of mass. The total mass of the products must equal the total mass of the reactants.
A stoichiometric equation is a notation that describes a chemical reaction using chemical formulae. An example is CH4 + 2 O2 -> CO2 + 2 H2O
In a correctly written chemical equation, reactants are the substances to the left of the arrow, and products are the substances to the right of the arrow. The reactants are what you have before the reaction starts, and the products are what you have when the reaction is over.
A chemical reaction can be represented by a chemical equation.
A chemical equation is the graphic form of the reaction.
A chemical equation is a shorthand description of a chemical reaction.
A chemical equation is used as a shortcut to describe a chemical reaction.
Chemical formula is representative for the chemical compositon of a compound. Chemical equation is representative (describe) for a chemical reaction.

A chemical equation is a short way to describe a chemical reaction, so yes.
A stoichiometric equation is a notation that describes a chemical reaction using chemical formulae. An example is CH4 + 2 O2 -> CO2 + 2 H2O
No, but both describe the same chemical reaction.
