a Ca3(PO4)2 + b HNO3 = c Ca(H2PO4)2 + d Ca(NO3)2 Step 2: Create a System of Equations Create an equation for each element (Ca, P, O, H, N) where each term represents the number of atoms of the element in each reactant or product. Ca: 3a + 0b...
a SiO2 + b C + c Ca3(PO4)2 = d CaSiO3 + f P4 + g CO Step 2: Create a System of Equations Create an equation for each element (Si, O, C, Ca, P) where each term represents the number of atoms of the element in each reactant or product. Si: 1a +...
Since there are an equal number of atoms of each element on both sides, the equation is balanced. 6CaSiO3+ P4+10CO =2Ca3(PO4)2+6SiO2+10C CaSiO3-++P4-++CO-+ = Ca3(PO4)2-++SiO2-++C-+ ReactantsProducts Ca13❌ Si11✔️ O410❌ P42❌ C11✔️...
