PRACTICE BALANCING EQUATIONS
You can invoke a balance simulator when you SUBMIT a chemical
equation followed by a ? sign. It provides a complete breakdown
of the equation but you may just focus on the ? column it displays
to see which elements are balanced. You can then add or modify the
coefficients in the equation and SUBMIT it again to see if you
improved the balance. You may even use fractions for the coefficients
to try to balance the equation. For example if you had H3 on one
side of the equation and H5 on the other side, you could use the
coefficient 5/3 H3.
You may continue changing coefficients until the
equation is balanced. See the tutorial
How to Balance Basic Equations
for more information.
