Balancing Chemical Equations Digital Lab Activity
Chemical reactions involve the changing of reactants into products. In every reaction the number of reactants and the number of products will always be equal. This is known as the ‘Law of Conservation of Mass”. This law is shown in a chemical reaction by balancing the reactants and products to ensure that what enters the reaction is accounted for in the final product. This Balancing Chemical Equations Digital Lab Activity allows you to practice balancing chemical equations.

The Balancing Chemical Equations Digital Lab Activity:
Students record their predictions and results of the lab activity. Once the activity is finished, discuss the lab activity and answer post-lab questions.
We also provided some of the Resources below for you to use in class. iTeachly Members can access all the content for the activity and the following lesson.
Students must come up with a unanimous answer for each question. Discussing the answers usually, results in some excellent dialogue on this topic.
