by Maryam Hussain What is a chemical equation? A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in terms of chemical formulas. Before writing any chemical equation, a step is there that symbols and formulas are made available for the substances involved in chemical processes, in addition to the names. These symbols and formulas are analogous to symbol and variables used in equation of physics, like that used in Newton’s second law of motion F = ma, and provide a type of chemical shorthand that chemists have found valuable because of their convenience. When the multipliers of reactants and products, called coefficients, in a chemical equation, are correctly given, the numbers of atoms of each element are equal on both sides of the arrow. The equation is then said to be a balanced chemical equation. We will illustrate the concept through a step-by-step procedure starting from writing & completing it to balancing of it. ...
