HOW DO YOU BALANCE A CHEMICAL
EQUATION
1. Count the number of atoms of each
element on the reactant side and
product side.
2. Find out which atoms are unbalanced.
In the example given, you know that
there is more H on the product side than
on the reactant side, but there is more N
on the reactant side.
3. Now balance each element at a time.
Do this by placing a small whole number
called a coefficient in front or before of a
symbol or formula.
4. Do not change the subscripts of the
formula in an attempt to balance the
equation as it will change the identity of
the components.
5. Check if the equation is completely
balanced.
