An equation needs to be balenced to demonstrate the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that in chemical reaction the total mass of the products is equal to the total mass of the reactants. This, simply put, means that what you start out with, you have to end with, even though it can be in a different order (making it (a) different substance(s) then what substance(s) you began with).
Equations have to be balanced due to the Law of Conservation of Mass.
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is neither created or destroyed in an ordinary chemical reaction. So the mass of the reactants have to equal the mass of the products.
Because of the universal law of science; Matter can neither be created nor destroyed. There is only the transfer.
For example the reactants in a chemical equation cannot have four carbon molecules while the products of the reaction only have two. That would mean that energy or matter had been destroyed. Thus chemical equations must be balanced.
because of the law of conservation of mass. matter can neither be created or destroyed.

An unbalanced equation represents mass either appearing or disappearing. Since tht is impossible, the equation must be balanced.
A balanced equation is when the amount of molecules reacting are equal to the amount of molecules being produced. Chemical equations must be balanced because no energy/mass is ever lost when a reaction takes place. This is because atoms are simply arranged.
chemical equations must be balanced according to the law of conservation of mass: mass cannot be created or destroyed. In other words: it's impossible to have an unbalanced equation that is correct, so do what your teacher tells you to.
All symbol equations must be balanced to see how much you need or how much you get. This may not be neccecary for amateur chemist. But it is very important for industries. Is is also helpful for you ecconomically. also, balancing is the first step into stoichiometry. It basically gives you helpful information :)
balanced.
Yes, chemical equations must be balanced due to the law of conservation of matter/mass.

this is called having a balanced equation .....if both sides are not balanced u must correct it by changing the number of moles
The amount on one side of the '=' must balance the amount on the other.

The number of reactants atoms must be equal to the number of products atoms.

The number of atoms in the reactant and products must be equal to obey the law of conservation of mass.
