1 Balancing Equations Balancing, Writing, and Naming Equations

2 A.word equation 1.a word equation is written out in words e.g.copper + oxygen ----> Copper oxide 2.really is not useful

3 B.Chemical equations 1.involves chemical symbols e.g. H 2 + O 2 ----> H 2 O (not balanced) 2.much more useful C.must represent the facts H 2 + O 2 ----> H 2 O not H 2 + O 2 ----> H 2 O 2

4 D.make sure you always use the correct symbols and follow the law of conservation of mass Sodium is Na not S E. Law of conservation of mass - in a chemical reaction - mass can not be created nor destroyed -what you start with, you must also end with

5 F.Balancing equations 1.steps a.write down the correct symbols for the elements b.reactants go on the left - products on the right reactantsproducts the c.remember your 7 diatomics H 2, O 2, N 2, F 2, Cl 2, Br 2, I 2 is read as yields or equals

6 d.balance electrically (use subscripts). must do first e.balance by law of conservation of mass - use coefficients.

7 Balancing Equations

8 Reactants: 2 atoms N and 2 atoms H N 2 + H 2 NH 3 N 2 + H 2 NH 3 Nitrogen + hydrogen ammonia Nitrogen + hydrogen ammonia Products: 1 atom N and 3 atoms of H Count atoms

9 Balancing Equations Nothing is balanced. Nothing is balanced. Balance the nitrogen first by placing a coefficient of 2 in front of the NH 3. Balance the nitrogen first by placing a coefficient of 2 in front of the NH 3. N 2 + H 2 2NH 3 N 2 + H 2 2NH 3

10 Balancing Equations N 2 + 3H 2 2NH 3 N 2 + H 2 2NH 3 Place a 3 in front of H 2. Reactant side: 2 atoms N, 6 atoms H Product side: 2 atoms N, 6 atoms H Hydrogen is not balanced. Hydrogen is not balanced.

11 Balancing Equations Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 SO 4 CaSO 4 + H 3 PO 4

12 Balancing Equations Side note on Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 Side note on Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 The subscript after the phosphate indicates two phosphate groups. The subscript after the phosphate indicates two phosphate groups. This means two PO 4 3- groups with two P and eight O atoms. This means two PO 4 3- groups with two P and eight O atoms.

13 Balancing Equations In this equation, the ion groups do not break up. In this equation, the ion groups do not break up. Instead of counting individual atoms, ion groups may be counted. Instead of counting individual atoms, ion groups may be counted. Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 SO 4 CaSO 4 + H 3 PO 4

14 Balancing Equations Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 SO 4 CaSO 4 + H 3 PO 4 Reactants: Ca 2+ – 3, PO 4 3- - 2, H + – 2, SO 4 2+ - 1 Products: Ca 2+ - 1, SO 4 2- - 1, H + - 3, PO 4 3- - 1

15 Balancing Equations Balance the metal first by placing a coefficient of 3 in front of CaSO 4. Balance the metal first by placing a coefficient of 3 in front of CaSO 4. Products: Ca – 3 atoms, SO 4 2- - 3 groups Products: Ca – 3 atoms, SO 4 2- - 3 groups Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 SO 4 3CaSO 4 + H 3 PO 4

16 Balancing Equations Three sulfate groups are needed on the reactant side so place a coefficient of 3 in front of H 2 SO 4. Three sulfate groups are needed on the reactant side so place a coefficient of 3 in front of H 2 SO 4. 3H 2 SO 4 gives 6 H + and 3 SO 4 2-. 3H 2 SO 4 gives 6 H + and 3 SO 4 2-. Neither phosphate nor Hydrogen is balanced. Neither phosphate nor Hydrogen is balanced. Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 + H 2 SO 4 3CaSO 4 + H 3 PO 4 3 A coefficient of 2 placed in front of H 3 PO 4 which balances both hydrogen and phosphate. A coefficient of 2 placed in front of H 3 PO 4 which balances both hydrogen and phosphate. 2
