Chemical Equations Worksheet

Complete the charts provided for each equation . Draw your own chart for the rest. Decide if each
equation is balanced or unbalanced

AgNO3 + H2S  Ag2S + 2HNO3 Fe2O3 + H2  2Fe + 3H2O

Reactants # of Atoms Products # of Atoms Reactants # of Atoms Products # of Atoms

Fe 2 2
Ag 3 Ag 2 Fe

N 3 S 1 O 3 H 4
No, because
O 3 4 the 'H"s are
H H O 3
2
not the same
2 2 Balanced? If No, why not?
H N

S 1 4 Mg(ClO3)2  MgCl2 + O2
O
Balanced? If No, why not? No, because the first Reactants # of Atoms Products # of Atoms
letters are not the same
Al + N2  2AlN Mg
2 Mg 1

Reactants # of Atoms Products # of Atoms Cl 2

6 Cl

Al 1 2 O 6 O
Al 2
Balanced? If No, why not? No, because all numbers
N 2 N 2
don't match
CaCO3  CaO + CO2
Balanced? If No, why not? No, because 'Al is not
Reactants # of Atoms Products # of Atoms
the same
Mg + AgNO3 Mg(NO3)2 + Ag Ca 1 Ca
1
Not balanced. Same as number 3 just flipped
C 1 C
1
O O
2 2
Balanced? If No, why not? Yes, because all the numbers match

CaO + CO2 CaCO3

Balanced. It the same as number 5 just flipped
