  • Question
  • What is the purpose of balancing chemical equations?


  • Options
  • A. law of conservation of energy
  • B. law of conservation of mass
  • C. Both A & B
  • D. None of the above

  • Correct Answer
  • law of conservation of mass 

    Explanation

    The main purpose of balancing chemical equations is to make the mass of reactants is equal to mass of products obtained after the reaction. Hence, to make law of conservation of mass is purpose of balancing chemica equations.
