---- Balancing Chemical Equations in Five Easy Steps ---

Balancing chemical equations is a core skill in chemistry. In this video you'll learn the basics for balancing equation with examples and explanation.

There are three key things to remember when balancing reactions.

- First count the number of each type of atom on each side of the chemical equation. It helps to make a table below the equation to be sure you have the correct numbers.

- You can only change the coefficients (these are the numbers in front substances).

- You should NOT change the subscripts (the small numbers after elements). That would make a new chemical compound!

Once you're done balancing a chemical equation double check both sides to be sure you have the same number of each type of atom on each side of the balanced equation.

Converting between moles and grams is the cornerstone of being successful in stoichiometry, the study of chemical quantities. Take the time to learn mole conversions and you will find chemistry is much easier.

The use of conversion factors (also called factor-label method or dimensional analysis) is a more general technique for converting quantities. Once you understand how it works it can be applied to many different conversion (as long as you know the conversion factor).
