Question

what do mean by skeletal equation​

Answer 1

Answer:

The skeletal formula, also called line-angle formula or shorthand formula, of an organic compound is a type of molecular structural formula that serves as a shorthand representation of a molecule's bonding and some details of its molecular geometry. A skeletal formula shows the skeletal structure or skeleton of a molecule, which is composed of the skeletal atoms that make up the molecule.[1] It is represented in two dimensions, as on a piece of paper. It employs certain conventions to represent carbon and hydrogen atoms, which are the most common in organic chemistry.

Answer 2

Skeletal equations are the equations in which there is only chemical formula of reactants and products .

But no state mentioned & balancing of atoms on either side of equation is done .

E.g , Mg + O2 ➡ MgO
