Objective Four: The student will demonstrate an understanding of the structures and properties of matter.
TAKS Objective: (4) 8C The student knows that changes in matter affect everyday life. The student is expected to
investigate and identify the law of conservation of mass.
TEKS: IPC 8C: he student is expected to investigate and identify the law of conservation of mass.
Objectives:

The student will need to be able to apply the law of conservation of mass.
The student will need to be able to balance simply chemical equations.
The student will need to be able to correctly identify a balanced chemical equation.
Critical Attributes of the Concept: The teacher can put the following up on the board: I + O + P + C  TR and
have the students try to figure out what you are trying to communicate. Then put the following numbers in the
places: 4 I + 3 O + 1 P + 1 C  9 TR. If the students haven’t figured it out when the numbers are put in place, give
then the hint “sports”. The “equation” describes the Texas Rangers – 4 infielders, 3 outfielders, 1 pitcher, and 1
catcher. Have the students make up their own “equations” (examples 2 A + 2 L + 1 T  B; 2 arms + 2 legs + 1
trunk = 1 body –or—have then describe what makes up a car). Once the students have the concept of equations,
make sure that they know that they must be “balanced”. All chemical equations must satisfy the Law of
Conservation of Mass, i.e. the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. Remember that chemical
equations are written:
REACTANTS  PRODUCTS
Critical Attributes of the Skill: The following are the rules for writing balance chemical equations:
1. Write the formula of all reactants on the left of the arrow and products are written on the right.
2. Make sure that all formulas are written correctly and know that formulas can NOT be changed when you
balance an equation.
3. Count the number of times each atom appears on (a) the reactant side, and (b) the product side of an
equation.
4. If the numbers for (a) and for (b) agree, the equation is balanced.
5. If they do not agree, the equation is NOT balanced. An equation can be balanced by using coefficients.
a. Coefficients are whole numbers placed before a chemical formula to show how many of each atom
is present.
b. Coefficients are used to “multiple” the number of each atom present.
c. An example is 2 (NH4)2SO4 which means that you have:
i. 4 nitrogen (N)
ii. 16 hydrogen (H)
iii. 2 sulfur (S)
iv. 8 oxygen (O)
d. When no coefficient is shown, it is assumed to be one.
See the enclosed sheet titled Balancing Chemical Equations for a step by step guided practice for the student.
Answers to the two practice problems are:
2 Al + N2  2 AlN
2 NaCl + H2SO4  Na2SO4 + 2 HCl

Law of Conservation of Mass is also called Law of Conservation of Matter.
All equations must be balanced so that they show that the Law of Conservation of Mass is satisfied.
The equation is already balanced, nothing needs to be done with it.
The balanced equation is SnS2 + 6 HCl  H2SnCl6 + 2 H2S
The balanced equation is 3 Br2 + 2 AlCl3  2 AlBr3 + 3 Cl2
The equation that the problem tell us is: K + O2  K2O. Since we have 3.91 grams of K and 7.11 grams
of K2O, and the mass of the products (K2O) must equal the mass of the reactants (K + O2), simply subtract
the mass of K from the mass of products to find the oxygen. 7.11 grams – 3.91 grams = 3.20 grams
Since the three is the subscript on the ( ) – it means multiple the elements on the inside of the ( ).
The balanced equation is: 3 RbOH + H3PO4  Rb3PO4 + 3 H2O.
The equation in the problem is S + F2  SF6. For an explanation of how to solve the problem, see number
six. The answer is 5.722 grams – 1.256 grams = 4.466 grams

Atoms are rearranged in when they make products…they are never destroyed.
The balance equation is: P4 + 10 Cl2  4 PCl5. Remember that there is a 1 when there is no
coefficient.
Law of Conservation of Mass = mass of products and reactants must be equal.
The balanced equation is: 2 C9H18 + 27 O2  18 CO2 + 18 H2O.
The balanced equation is: 2 C4H10 + 13 O2  CO2 + 10 H2O.
Since the three is the subscript on the ( ) – it means multiple the elements on the inside of the ( ).
The mass of the products (AgCl and NaNO3) must be equal to the mass of the reactants (NaCl + AgNO3).
So, 143 + 85 = 58 + X  X = 170.
The balanced equation is: 2 Cr + 3 H2SO4 Cr2(SO4)3 + 3 H2.
Balancing Chemical Equations
Compounds are formed from rearrangements and new combinations of atoms. These rearrangements are
represented by BALANCED EQUATIONS. Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
Remember,
Subscripts are used to write formulas.
Coefficients are used to balance equations.
The following equation is for the formation of a basketball team.
unbalanced:
balanced:
GUARDS + FORWARDS + CENTER ----- G2F2C
2GUARDS + 2FORWARDS + CENTER ----- G2F2C
When a chemical equation is balanced, EACH SIDE OF THE EQUATION HAS THE SAME NUMBER OF
EACH ELEMENT.
When hydrogen and oxygen react, water is the product. The chemical equation for this reaction is:
H2
+
O2

H2O
This equation is not balanced, since the left hand side has two oxygen atoms, while the right hand side has only
one. The following equation is the proper balanced equation.
2H2
+
O2

2H2O
There is a simple process to follow to balance chemical equations. The following example will illustrate the
process.
KCl + O2 ----- KClO3
Step 1:
Do a preliminary atom count.

Step 2:
To make the number of oxygen atoms equal on both sides, place a COEFFICIENT of 2 before the KClO3 and a
COEFFICIENT of 3 before the O2. This will give 6 oxygen atoms on each side of the equation.
KCl + 3O2 ----- 2KClO3
Do another atom count on both sides.

Our equation is not yet balanced because now the number of potassium and chlorine atoms differ.
Step 3:
To balance the number of potassium and chlorine atoms place a coefficient of 2 before the KCl.
2KCl + 3O2 ----- 2KClO3
Do another atom count on both sides.

Step 1:

Step 2:
To make the number of oxygen atoms equal on both sides, place a coefficient of 2 before the Al2O3 and a
coefficient of 3 before the O2. This will give 6 oxygen atoms on each side of the equation.
Al + ___ O2  ____
Do another atom count on both sides.

Our equation is not yet balanced because now the number of aluminum atoms differ.
Step 3:
