Hello dear your 1st part of answer is in photo and 2nd part is this down one
an equation must be balance in order to comply with the law of conversation of matter which states that matter is neither created nor destroyed in course of chemical reaction and unbalanced equation would imply that atoms have been created or destroyed.
Example =CaCO3--->CaO+Co2
(in this equation ,the number of atom of Ca,C and O on both sides is the same that is the equation is balanced.)

Answer:
A chemical equation needs to be balanced because a chemical reaction is just a rearrangement of atoms. Atoms themselves are neither created nor destroyed during the course of a chemical reaction. The chemical equation needs to be balanced to follow the law of conservation of mass.
