Wow, first chemistry class of the new decade- and we already did some stuffs. These stuffs I'm referring to are Word Equations. Yeeey!
Word Equations are just chemical reaction put into words. It's as simple as that.
You just have to keep in mind the 7 diatomic molecules which are H, O, N, Cl, Br, I, F. Plus Phosphorous and Sulfur.
Here is a video that will show you how to balance word equations.
Here are some examples as well.
1. Magnesim reacts with Oxygen to produce Magnesium Oxide.
2. Copper II Sulphate Tetrahydrate decomposes to form water and Copper II Sulphate.
We should also keep in mind some Acids such as the following:
