The Chemical Equation: A Chemical Recipe Dr. Gergens - SD Mesa College A. Learn the meaning of these arrows. B. The chemical equation is the shorthand notation for a chemical reaction. A chemical equation shows the molar quantities of reactants and products in a reaction. react to produce 1Reactants 1Products the number out in front of a substance in a balanced reaction is a molar quantity known as a molar coefficient B. Law of Conservation of Mass - Matter cannot be gained or lost in the process of a chemical reaction. The law of conservation of mass states that we must have a balanced equation. C. List five factors involved in the construction of an equation or "chemical recipe." 1. The identity of products and reactants must be specified. 2. Reactants are written to the left of the reaction arrow ( >) and products to the right. 3. The physical state of reactants and products is shown in parentheses; (s), (l), (g), and (aq) 4. The symbol over the reaction arrow mean that heat energy is necessary for the reaction to occur. 5. The equation must be balanced. Steps for balancing a chemical equation Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Count the number of atoms of each element on both the product and reactant side. Determine which atoms are not balanced. Balance one atom at a time, using coefficients. Start with atoms that appear only once in the reactants and only once in the products. Usually leave Hydrogen atoms followed by Oxygen atoms until last. Step 4: After you believe that you have successfully balanced the equation, repeat Step 1, to be certain that mass conservation has been achieved. Note: DO NOT Change subscripts in a molecular formula (i.e., 2 NaCl X Na 2 Cl 2 ) 119
