Balancing EquationsNovember , 2.009 *103 • Objective: • SWBAT apply law of conservation of mass to chemical reactions by balancing! • Catalyst: • Name the reactants in this equation. • Fe + AlOH3 FeOH2 _+ Al • Name the products in this equation. • 2H2 + O2 2H2O
Agenda • Catalyst • Go over test! • Balancing Equations • Practice • Exit Question
Whiteboard Practice • How many atoms are in these compounds? • AlCl3 • H2O • H2O2 • KCl • Be3S2
Balancing equations RULES! • Key Point #1: When balancing equations, Never, Never, NEVER change subscripts, only coefficients!
Yo, Mr. Jhaveri • What is a coefficient? • GOOD QUESTION!
Coefficient • A coefficient is a whole number comes in front of the compound, never in the middle! • You multiply the coefficient to all the numbers in the compound 2AlCl3
Do you get it? • 3AlCl3 • How many atoms of each element do they have? • 3 Aluminum’s • 9 Chlorine’s
Whiteboard Practice • 2AlCl3 • 4H2O • 6H2O2 • 5KCl • 2Be3S2
Why is the top equation wrong? (5 minutes) – You figure it out • We never want to leave an equation written like this… • H2 + O2 H2O • We want to have it like this… • 2H2 + O2 2H2O • WHY???
L-C-M!!! • Key Point #2: • Chemical reactions MUST follow the law of conservation of mass. • What was that LCM again? • If 3 carbons are in the reactants of a reaction, then there darn well better be 3 carbons in the products of a reaction.
