Warm Up 10/2
Please get your Science Scoring Log out and be prepared to update it (on back of Unit 1 Packet)
Cross off 1-E1 from Assignment list and add Law of Conservation of Mass Lab in its place.

Balancing Equations Law of Conservation
of Matter: In a chemical reaction,
matter can be neither created nor destroyed.
In a chemical reaction, the amount of reactants equals the amount of products.

Balancing Equations Also known as: Law of Conservation
of Atoms: The number of atoms
of each type of element must be the same on each side of the equation.

Balancing Equations
Hydrogen and oxygen are diatomic elements (won’t exist alone!).
Their subscripts cannot be changed. The subscripts on water cannot be
changed. Can only add coefficients until
balanced
Hydrogen + oxygen water
H2 + O2 H2O

Balancing Equation Steps 1. First, identify the reactant side and
the product side. 2. Draw a line coming down from the
yield sign (arrow) 3. List the elements on each side of
the arrow4. Count the elements on each side of
the arrow5. Begin balancing (might have to go
back and forth a few times until everything is balanced!)

Balancing Equation Steps
1. Count the atoms on each side and ALWAYS write it out like this:
Reactant Side Product Side H=2 H=2 O=2 O=1
H2 + O2 H2O
![Page 9: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Balancing Equations
H2 + O2 H2O
If the subscripts cannot be altered, how can the atoms be made equal?
Adjust the number of molecules by changing the coefficients.

Balancing Equations
Reactant Side Product Side H=2 H=4 O=2 O=2
H is no longer balanced.
H2 + O2 2H2O
![Page 11: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Balancing Equations
Reactant Side Product Side H=4 H=4 O=2 O=2
It is now balanced because the proper amounts of coefficients were added!
2H2 + O2 2H2O
![Page 12: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Balancing Equations
Reactant Side Product Side N=2 N=1 H=2 H=3
N2 + H2 NH3
Nitrogen + hydrogen ammonia
![Page 13: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Balancing Equations Nothing is balanced. Balance the nitrogen first by
placing a coefficient of 2 in front of the NH3.N2 + H2 2NH3
Reactant Side Product Side N=2 N=1 2H=2 H=3 6
![Page 14: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Balancing Equations Hydrogen is not balanced. Place a 3 in front of H2
N2 + 3H2 2NH3
Reactant Side Product Side N=2 N=1 2
H=2 6 H=3 6
![Page 15: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What about Polyatomic Ions?
-Follow the same steps as normal EXCEPT, do NOT break apart the polyatomic ions!
Reactant Side Product Side
Ca= 3 Ca= 1 PO4= 2 PO4= 1
H= 2 H= 3 SO4= 1 SO4= 1
Ca3(PO4)2 + H2SO4 CaSO4 + H3PO4
![Page 16: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Balancing Equations
Balance the metal first by placing a coefficient of 3 in front of CaSO4.
Ca3(PO4)2 + H2SO4 CaSO4 + H3PO4
Ca3(PO4)2 + H2SO4 3CaSO4 + H3PO4
Reactant Side Product Side Ca= 3 Ca= 1 3
PO4= 2 PO4= 1
H= 2 H= 3 SO4= 1 SO4= 1 3
![Page 17: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Balancing Equations Next, balance the ion groups Last, balance the rest of the atoms
Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2SO4 3CaSO4 + H3PO4 3 sulfate groups are needed on the
reactant side so place a coefficient of 3 in front of H2SO4.

Balancing Equations
Reactant Side Product Side Ca= 3 Ca= 1 3
PO4= 2 PO4= 1
H= 2 6 H= 3 SO4= 1 3 SO4= 1 3
Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2SO4 3CaSO4 + H3PO4
Neither H nor PO4 is balanced!
![Page 19: Balancing Equations](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110405/5681328d550346895d99232b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Balancing Equations A coefficient of 2 placed in front
of H3PO4 balances both hydrogen and phosphate.
Ca3(PO4)2 + 3H2SO4 3CaSO4 + 2H3PO4
Congratulations! You are now finished!!!
