How do we balance chemical equations?
Accepted Answer
Chemical equations must be balanced to satisfy the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction. Balancing involves adjusting coefficients to ensure that the same number of atoms of each element are present on both sides of the equation. This process is essential for accurately representing reactions.
