Balancing Chemical Equations Worksheet

Directions: Balance the following chemical equations by adjusting the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas.

  1. ___Fe + ___O2 → ___Fe2O3

  2. ___Na + ___Cl2 → ___NaCl

  3. ___H2 + ___O2 → ___H2O

  4. ___Al + ___O2 → ___Al2O3

  5. ___Ca + ___H2O → ___Ca(OH)2 + ___H2

  6. ___C2H6 + ___O2 → ___CO2 + ___H2O

  7. ___NH3 + ___O2 → ___NO + ___H2O

  8. ___KClO3 → ___KCl + ___O2

  9. ___C6H12O6 + ___O2 → ___CO2 + ___H2O

  10. ___Mg + ___HCl → ___MgCl2 + ___H2

Answer Key:

  1. 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3
  2. 2Na + Cl2 → 2NaCl
  3. 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
  4. 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3
  5. 1Ca + 2H2O → 1Ca(OH)2 + 1H2
  6. 2C2H6 + 7O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O
  7. 4NH3 + 5O2 → 4NO + 6H2O
  8. 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2
  9. 1C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
  10. 1Mg + 2HCl → 1MgCl2 + 1H2
