balanced chemical reaction – same number of atoms of each element on either side of the arrow reactants – are on left side of the arrow; stuff being consumed in reaction products – are on right side of the arrow; stuff being formed in reaction arrow, – means equals, or produces, or gives

combustion rxn – when something burns and consumes oxygen, O 2

Balance reactions by adding coefficients to get the same number of each atom of each element on either side of the arrow Balancing Hints 1. Inspect the unbalanced rxn for 10 sec 2. Leave the free, uncombined elements alone until the end 3. Work with pencil so you can erase mistakes 4. Practice lots of hw problems

stoichiometry – a quantitative relationship between reactants and products via moles How many moles of H 2 O are obtained from the combustion of 3. 5 moles C 3 H 8 O ?
