No atoms are created or destroyed in a reaction. This is called . Chemical reactions are represented using symbols to represent , with numbers in front of them to the equation.
The relative formula mass of a chemical can be calculated by adding together the of the atoms. In a balanced equation, the relative formula masses of the products equals that of the . If a reaction ever seems to lose or gain mass it is because product or reactant is involved, whose mass does not get measured. is a way of describing the accuracy of a measurement.
Percentage yield is calculated as the percentage of the that is actually made. Percentage yield might decrease because some of the reactants either or react to form other products.
is a way of comparing reactions to see which utilises the most . It is better for this to be higher because it is more economic and .
