Reason For Learning
Every time you light a candle, bake a cake, take a breath or even think, you start a chemical reaction. You may not always notice them, but chemical reactions are going on constantly around you and inside you. By understanding how chemical reactions work, scientists are able to use and control chemical reactions to improve our quality of life. Chemists have developed their own way of describing and explaining what happens during a chemical reaction. They do this by writing chemical equations.
Learning Intention
At the completion of this lesson students should be able to balance chemical equations and write the worded formula equations.
