Algebraic Method for Balancing Chemical Equations

Описание: Some chemical equations are too complex to balance by trial and error. This is where the algebraic method comes in! I’ll show you how to use algebra to balance even the trickiest equations step-by-step, making it easier to tackle difficult reactions with confidence. Practice problems included!

Although the algebraic method can be used to balance any chemical equation, I personally use the trial and error method for beginner or intermediate level problems and the algebraic method for hard or time-consuming problems. To learn about the trial and error method of balancing chemical equations, see this:    • Balancing Chemical Equations - Trial & Err...
