The chemical formula of a molecule shows how many atoms are in the molecule so you cannot change it since that would mean it is a different molecule then.
To balance the equations you have to have the same amount of atoms in the left and right hand side. So you try to balance the numbers of each molecule on each side so that there are for example 3 hydrogen atoms overall on each side.
Example:
H2 + O2 ---> H2O
This equation is not balanced since there are two H and two O on left side but only one O and two H on the right side. To balance you cannot change the formula from H2O (water) to H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) because this is a different compound. But you can balance it like this:
2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O
Notice that now there are 4H on left hand side (2*2) and 2O, which is the same like the right hand side where you have 4H(2*2) and 2O (2*1 because there is no number after O so there is only 1 atom of it in the molecule)
No, elements are the makeups of chemical formulas. No, elements are the makeups of chemical formulas.
Chemical Equation
Formula are He and N2
Helium is He Nitrogen is N2
There is no chemical formula for an acorn. An acorn is a heterogeneous mixture. Chemical formulas are only used for pure substances, that is compounds and elements.
formulas
Chemical equations provide the formulas of reactants and products in a chemical reaction. They usually do not provide structure unless supplemented with chemical structures.
because yes!
formulas
Chemicals equations use chemical formulas and other symbols instead of words to summarize a reaction.
Rules of balancing chemical equations:1. write the unbalanced equation2. count the number of atoms of the same element on reactant and product side of equation3. make the number of atoms the same by changing the coefficients, not subscripts4. balance hydrogen and oxygen last5. reduce coefficients if possibleThe first step in balancing a chemical equation is identifying all elements.For example:H2OSo the elements you would identify are H (hydrogen) and O (oxygen).--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------b. identify the reactants and products. - (e2020)
1. The representation of chemicals in chemical equations is made by formulas.2. The word code has another sense in chemistry; as an example, the digital code of the American Chemical Society - Chemical Abstract Service (CAS No).
All chemical compounds will have a chemical formula. For instance, the calcium chloride has formula CaCl2. Elements, on the other hand, have chemical symbols. Chemical reactions can be represented by chemical equations.
Yes, the two are synonyms.
Chemicals equations use chemical formulas and other symbols instead of words to summarize a reaction.
There has to be the same numbers and types of elements on both sides of the equation. This is accomplished by adding coefficients in front of the chemical formulas as needed. Never change a formula when balancing an equation.
Chemical bonds are broken and formed.The totall mass of all reagenta is the same as the mass of the reactionproduct.
