Update ) General Chemistry I with
Lab | Questions & Answers | Grade A | 100%
Correct. Portage Learning


1. Chemical Equation: Symbolic representation of both the identies and the

relative quantities (if balanced) of substances undergoing a chemical or

physical change




2. Reactants: sustances UNDERGOING reaction

3. Products: Substances GENERATED by the reaction

4. Coefficients: Number placed in from of symbols or formulas in a chemical

equation to indicate their relative value


- Provide relative ratio, which should stay consistent from reactants to products


- balanced equations should show in lowest whole-number ratios






,5. Balanced Equation: chemical equation with the same number of atoms of

each element on both sides of the equation (reactant and product sides)


- demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Matter


- CANNOT change subscripts to balance - these are substances

-CAN change coefficients - they multiply the entire formula to the right (2 of

H_2O) 6. Balancing Equations: Adding coefficients IN FRONT of reactants

or products in a chemical equation. Each element should have the same number

of atoms on both sides.


Record counts EVERY TIME a change is made


NEVER change subscripts


Balancing by inspection = creating the balancing chart

7. Balancing Difficult Equations: Use fractions to represent odd ratios, then

multiply the whole equation to balance

8. Physical States (4): (s) solid,

(l) liquid,






, (g) gas,

(aq) aqueous / dissolved in water


i.e. 2 Na(s) + 2 H20(l) -> 2 NaOH (aq) +

H2 (g) 9. Special Conditions: written

30 degrees (temp where it took place)

element symbol (catalyst)

10. molecular equation: chemical equation in which all reactants and

products are represented as neutral substances


NOTE: Ionic substances dissociate into ions when dissolved in water
