To balance an equation you should:

• ONLY change subscripts.

• ONLY change coefficients.

• Change BOTH subscripts and coefficients.

Balance this equation: H₂ + Cl₂ ---> HCl

• It is balanced.

• H₂ + Cl₂ ---> 2HCl

• 3H₂ + Cl₂ ---> 6HCl

• H₂ + 3Cl₂ ---> 6HCl

What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?

• Mass is created in a chemical reaction

• Mass is created in a physical change

• New chemicals formed from a chemical reaction have a larger overall mass than the original reactants

• Mass is never created or destroyed
