What is a coefficient?

• The small number on the right of the chemical symbol.
• The large number in front of a chemical formula.
• The number in between the chemical symbols.
• The number behind a chemical formula.

What is the small number after an element in a chemical equation called.

Example: H₂

• Coefficient

• Subscript

• Atom

• Equation

Determine the coefficients to balance the equation.

__Al +__HCl --> __H₂ +__AlCl₃

• 2,6,3,2

• it's already balanced

• 4,12,3,4

• 2,1,4,5

Determine the coefficients to balance the chemical equation.

___Al + ___O₂--> ___Al₂O₃

• 4, 1, 2

• 4, 3, 4

• 3, 4, 1

• 4, 3, 2

Balance the equation.

__Mg + __Cl₂ --> __MgCl₂

• 1, 2,1

• already balanced

• 2,1,1

• 1,1,2

Enter coefficients as: # # # (don't forget to space; or you can use a comma too)

_ Al₂O₃ → _ Al + _ O₂

Which equation is balanced?

• PbO₂ + 2H₂

• SO₂ + H₂0 --> H₂SO₄

• 2Na + 2H₂O --> 2NaOH + H₂

What are the coefficients that would properly balance this equation?

__AgNO₃ + __H₂S --> __Ag₂S+ __HNO₃

• 2,1 --> 1,2

• 1,2 --> 1,1

• 1,2 --> 1,2

• 1,2 --> 2,1

What are the coefficients that would properly balance this equation?

__Al + __O₂--> __Al₂O₃

• 4,1 --> 2

• 4,3 --> 4

• 3,4 --> 1

• 4,3 --> 2

Which number should go in the blank?
Al(NO₃)₃ + _  NaOH -> Al(OH)₃ + 3 NaNO₃

• 1
• 2
