skeleton equation is when your chemical reaction is written with the chemical formulas that represent each substance that takes part in the reaction.

Answer:

an unbalanced equation is a chemical equations in which the total number atoms of each element

on the reactant side is not equal to the number of atoms of atoms of the same elements on the product side this equation is also called a skeleton equation

ex:-

Mg(s) + O2 heat. ➡️ MgO(s)

magnisum + oxygen ➡️magnesium oxide

Explanation:

  • Examples:Continuing with the electrolysis of water, we have a skeleton equation, "H2O−>H2+O2" The formula for water is H2O; the formula for hydrogen is H2; and the formula for oxygen is O2. A skeleton equation is just a way of using the formulas to indicate the chemicals that were involved in the chemical reaction.

  • The key difference between balanced equation and skeleton equation is that balanced equation gives the actual number of molecules of each reactant and product involved in the chemical reaction, whereas skeleton equation gives only the reactants of the reaction.
  • A skeleton equation is when your chemical reaction is written with the chemical formulas that represent each substance that takes part in the reaction.
  • Write the skeleton equation. Count the number of atoms of each element that appears as a reactant and as a product. ... Balance each element on at a time by placing coefficients in front of the formulas. It is best to begin by balancing elements that only appear in one formula on each side of the equation.
