Question

what is balanced chemical equation?why should chemical equations be balanced?​

Answer 1

If in a chemical equation the total number of atoms in the reactant side are equal to the total number of atoms in the product side then the chemical reaction is said to be balanced. For example

The chemical reaction should be balanced show that it can follow the law of conservation of mass.

Answer 2

Answer:

A balanced equation is an equation which has equal number of atoms of each element on both reactant and product side .

We need to balance a chemical equation in order to satisfy the law of conservation of mass . This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed . So the mass of of the elements present in the product side should be equal to mass of element present at reactant side. . This is only possible if number of atoms of each element on both sides of equation is equal.
