@Clonewolf4, I def agree. Sometimes I feel like I have all the info, and just don't know how to connect the dots. This video will help me take a step back and see the whole thing.
I need help with balancing chemical equations when one of the metals in the equation has it's charge listed beside it, for example: Lead (II) oxide. Does anything change in the process? Please Help!
very good vid mate cause of this i got an 77% on my exam i didnt go to school for 2 years and this vid helped me get into college i thank you very much. i dosed around in school but this vid saved my future thanks again im going to start revising now ;D
@SlapMarket First off, BE NICE, especially when your comment makes you look like a fool considering that the example you typed here is exactly like the first example in this video, but you are NOT paying attention to detail. You have hydroxide on BOTH sides. H2O = H(OH)!!!
Let's say we didn't have OH on both sides, you still draw that "stupid line" (as you called it) but you separate the OH into H's and O's.
@SugarSweetStar24 Polyatomic ions are non-metals that are bonded covalently, yet carry a charge. Check out my video called Polyatomic ions to see some commonly used polyatomic ions. Good luck with your studies.
@SugarSweetStar24 ahaha Anna! what are the chances of me finding you on here?! LOOL looks like we used the same videos to help us with our chemistry ;)
So yesterday night I was banging my head against the wall because I kept getting myself confused and google wasn't much of a help because all the words eventually drove me insane. Now after a goodnights sleep, I woke up and decided to try again. I came across your wonderful video and now, I understand everything. So thank you so much :)
@lilmissmuah As a matter of fact I was balancing the polyatomic OH first which as a result also increased my number of H's. SO4 is not the only polyatomic in this question. Hope this cleared things up for you.
@photoxloan First off, when balancing combustion reactions, balance the C's and H's first. Leave the O's for last.If you can do that, you will get an odd number of O's on the products side. The coefficients will work out to 1 + 4 --> 3 + 3
this video really help me a lot! how do we balance if there are like 3 molecules in the reactants? and how do I check the balance equation if we're given correct balance equation already. thank you so much. hope you understand my question. god bless!
@photoxloan It depends on the question. If you have 3 molecules on one side and 2 on the other, both of those numbers are multiples of 6. So on the side of the 3 you'd multiply it by 2 and on the side of the 2 you'd multiply it by 3. I hope that explained it. It's tough without an actual question to refer to. Look at my video on synthesis and decomposition, I have a couple of questions that balance out like the one I mentioned up top. Hope this helped you. Good luck with your studies. Mr.P
___Fe +__ H2 SO4 --->___Fe2 (SO4)3 + ____H2 the ____Fe2(SO4)3 part lets say for example i put a 2 there would be me saying now Fe-4 and S-6 and 0 24 ? basically how do I distrubute the number when it has Parethensis like that
@RedWOLF4Life96 That is the correct way of distribution. However, if you're looking for the answer, there is no need to put a 2 there. The correct balanced equation is: 2 Fe + 3 H2SO4 = Fe2(SO4)3 + 3 H2
hi, your vides are my best tutor, but there is something that is confusingme, such as why the final resul of h and oh is 6? are you adding 3 + 3 of both OH and H ? I am so sorry for asking this silly question, but this little part is getting me so confunfused thanks you. Daniela
YOU ARE GOD!!! thank you soo much i get it. today in my science class my teacher was teaching it and i was like "WHAT?" so i just gave up and put my books in my bag. but now i get it! you make it so much easier. Thank You
I'm just starting My Chem class this semester and I'm very glad I watched this. It's very good review for me since I didn't so this for a long time. Keep up the good work!
No, when we multiply if by 3, we combine SO4 as a whole. If we separate the SO4 into S's and O's, then yes we'll get 12 O's and 3 S's. We treat polyatomic ions such as SO4 as a combined when balancing, so long as they appear on both sides in the same way (as SO4). I hope this helped, thanks for watching. Good luck with your studies.
Great explanation. We just started to do balancing equations the other day in chemistry class, and I didn't understand it well at all. When I saw this video, it instantly enlightened me on the subject. I am now more able to do these equations. Your videos are all very helpful- I have been watching them and they all make a lot of sense and I now are in the top three of the chem class. Thanks so much dude. Keep making these they help alot.
Thank you so much for those kind words. It is greatly appreciated that you took the time to share your experiences with my videos. I hope you continue to excel as you've shown. Sorry for the late response, I hope you had a great holiday and an even better 2010.
Hey sir! I was wondering, how come, we have H2 in the reactants, and we put it down as 2 Hydrogens. (3:20 of the video) But then we have SO4 and we put that down as 1. Why not 4? Or even if we did 4, its only the oxygen that has 4 right? and the Sulfur only has 1 molecule. Do you kinda understand where I'm getting at? Thank you
WOW, so sorry about that question, i should have paid more attention, i get it now! you are AMAZING and people like you how dont even have to do this and take their own time to do this for other people they dont even know, SHOULD BE GETTING PAID FOR THIS! i know you are a teacher most likely! but this is extra and totally out of your way which is so kind. thanks a ton for your help. as i move on in my unit of chemistry and have problems, the first thing ill do is check out your videos!
Thank you so very much for your kind words. I really enjoy doing this especially when I hear students such as yourself are using it. Sure it does add more time to my planning, but I'm eager to put more and more of them together. Best of luck with your studies. Thank you again.
Hi, I've watched some of your other videos, they are great, but some of them are difficult to hear, like this video... but you are a great chemistry teacher thanks
Thank you very much for your kind words. I hope that I was helpful with my explanation on your question about Cl. Best of luck with your studies and enjoy your summer.
I would LOVE to come out to England. I hear it is beautiful over there. I'm a huge football supporter and I would love to catch an English Premier match.
As a matter of fact I am a teacher. Trying some different methods of trying to help my own students. Thanks for watching. That's awesome about your confidence with the material. Keep me posted on your successes.
Thank you. I had a problem with my microphone, but I felt like I had a good take so I was not in the mood to do it again lol. Thanks for watching. Best of luck with your studies.
Thank you for watching. I know some of my videos can be like that. I hope these videos can help those students who really don't understand the concept at all and require a slower approach to the topic. Best of luck with your studies.
I'm not quite sure what you mean by drop and swap. If it means you drop the metals and swap them. Sure you could probably refer to it that way. I hope it helped you in the end. Best of luck with your studies.
As a matter of fact the equation you've written is already balanced. So there is nothing that needs balancing. Notice K=1 on both sides, Ag=1 on both sides and both sides have NO3=1
Good luck with your studies. I hope this helped you.
Thank you for those kind words. As for the 6, well the original number we had was 3, but we eventually come to the conclusion that the 3 fulfilled our balanced state for a short period of time. Ultimately we had to increase the number of H and the OH because we have 6 H's and 6 OH on our Reactant side. Let me know if that helped you at all. Keep me posted.
I'm terribly sorry you weren't able to make heads or tails of the material. Hang in there and hopefully something will help shed the light on the material. Good luck with your studies. Don't give up.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I am having trouble with this subject, and I enjoy chemistry, but i dont get it fast enough. Once again thank you
Thank you for such a compliment. It really made my day. Best of luck with your studies and thanks for watching. Keep me posted on your successes in Chemistry.
Yes, however it can make balancing slightly more challenging. As a student I used to separate the S and the O4 until I figured out how it helped me to keep them together. It's your choice entirely. Best of luck with your studies. Thanks for watching.
but the ones with brackets around them, for example (OH), they cannot be separated, right? thanks a lot for making these videos, they're much more helpful that "chemistry for dummies"
As a matter of fact they can be separated. Just make sure that you count the number of atoms accordingly (i.e. Al(OH)3 - means we have 1-Al, 3-O and 3-H). The only problem is that separating them will make balancing slightly more challenging when dealing with these polyatomic ions. Let me know how else I can help. I have videos on counting atoms as well. Good luck buddy.
Hey! thank you! i was worry because tomorrow is may Chemistry exam about balancing equations and i dont understand, my teacher is very confusing but with this video now i get it Thankyou ^_^
Thank you soooo very much for giving me that credit. I'm really proud of your improvement in Chemistry. I wish you best of luck. Keep me posted on your successes.
Thank you for the kind words. Maybe your professor has a different style from mine. Unfortunately Stoichiometry is not part of my curriculum. Once I get my classes recorded I will start expanding my library with other material. But that won't be for at least another year as I have to build PowerPoint presentations for the material first. I wish you best of luck with your studies. Let me know how you do.
You deserve teacher of the year or something. i wish my teachers would take the time to do some stuff like this, it helps sooooo much. Ive been to about 3 of my teachers for help with this, they all explained it, but it never really made sense to me, but after this, i have a much clearer understanding of all of this.
Thankyou so much for this! I have my end of year exam tomorrow and I was stressing over equations like these! I don't know how schooling works in America but in NZ I'm doing NCEA Level One....my first NCEA year!!! Eeek! Thankyou a lot!
How do u do when you have 4 on one side and 6 on the other? Do you put 3 and 2 respectively on front of those molecules? [balance with 12 --- lowest common number].
ohhh nigga do the same thing ii do. lol

what if i didn't know that SO4 was sulfate. would it be possible to work with the "S" and the "O4" separately?
rahatrahman07 3 years ago
Yes, however it can make balancing slightly more challenging. As a student I used to separate the S and the O4 until I figured out how it helped me to keep them together. It's your choice entirely. Best of luck with your studies. Thanks for watching.

but the ones with brackets around them, for example (OH), they cannot be separated, right? thanks a lot for making these videos, they're much more helpful that "chemistry for dummies"
rahatrahman07 3 years ago
As a matter of fact they can be separated. Just make sure that you count the number of atoms accordingly (i.e. Al(OH)3 - means we have 1-Al, 3-O and 3-H). The only problem is that separating them will make balancing slightly more challenging when dealing with these polyatomic ions. Let me know how else I can help. I have videos on counting atoms as well. Good luck buddy.

That is is miracle. You taught me this balancing equation in 20 minutes for free.
While i go to a school and pay thousands of dollars and sit for over an 1 and twenty and still dont understand. THANK YOU
By THe way can you do instructions for Stockiometry(I think thats how its spelled?)
jasonlee334 3 years ago 2
Thank you for the kind words. Maybe your professor has a different style from mine. Unfortunately Stoichiometry is not part of my curriculum. Once I get my classes recorded I will start expanding my library with other material. But that won't be for at least another year as I have to build PowerPoint presentations for the material first. I wish you best of luck with your studies. Let me know how you do.

You deserve teacher of the year or something. i wish my teachers would take the time to do some stuff like this, it helps sooooo much. Ive been to about 3 of my teachers for help with this, they all explained it, but it never really made sense to me, but after this, i have a much clearer understanding of all of this.
THANK YOU!

Thank you very much. This is as far as our curriculum for Grade 10 goes. I will hopefully in the near future be doing some grade 11 and 12 chemistry.
Papapodcasts 3 years ago
Exactly. Lowest common multiple. BUT remember, once you balance make sure that all the coefficients (numbers) are in lowest terms for example:
4H2O ---> 4H2 + 2O2 notice how all the numbers can be simplified to:
2H2O ---> 2H2 + O2
Same rules like in math. Simplify to lowest terms once you have completely balanced the equation.

How do u do when you have 4 on one side and 6 on the other? Do you put 3 and 2 respectively on front of those molecules? [balance with 12 --- lowest common number].
