Balancing & Word Equations Practice
First, begin by telling which type of reaction is taking place. Then go back and balance the following
equations:
To practice balancing, you may use the Phet Lab online. When finished, check your
answers.

1) When dissolved beryllium chloride reacts with dissolved silver nitrate in water, aqueous beryllium
nitrate and silver chloride powder are made.
2) When isopropanol (C3H8O) burns in oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, and heat are produced.
3) When dissolved sodium hydroxide reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4), aqueous sodium sulfate,
water, and heat are formed.
4) When fluorine gas is put into contact with calcium metal at high temperatures, calcium fluoride
powder is created in an exothermic reaction.
5) When sodium metal reacts with iron (II) chloride, iron metal and sodium chloride are formed.
