Topic: Chemical Formulas
Essential Question: What is the law of conservation of mass, and how does it apply
to chemical equations?
Topic: Chemical FormulasEssential Question: What is the law of conservation of mass, and how does it apply to chemical equations?
Chemical formulas
Are written using an elements chemical symbol from the periodic table
Used to identify how many atoms of each element are present

Chemical formula for water
H20
Subscript- tells you how many atoms per element there are
There are 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom in water
Topic: Chemical FormulasEssential Question: What is the law of conservation of mass, and how does it apply to chemical equations?
Chemical formula for water
3H20
Coefficient- tells you how many molecules there are
There are 3 molecules of water
Topic: Chemical FormulasEssential Question: What is the law of conservation of mass, and how does it apply to chemical equations?
Chemical formula for water
3H20
Coefficient- you multiply the coefficient by the subscript to get the number of atoms per element
There are 6 hydrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms
During a chemical reaction, no matter is created or destroyed, it is just rearranged 2H2 + O2 2H2O
+
The chemical equation is balanced

Law of conservation of mass
Topic: Chemical FormulasEssential Question: What is the law of conservation of mass, and how does it apply to chemical equations?
How to see if a chemical equation is balanced
2H2 + O2 2H2O
1.) Take an element inventory for each side of the equation2.) Write down the number of atoms for each element3.) If the numbers match, then it is balanced
