1Fe, 2N, 6O

400

Balance the following equation:

Mg + N--> Mg3N2

3Mg + N--> Mg3N2

400

Name the type of reaction:

Photosynthesis requires energy:

6CO2 + 6H2O + energy --> C6H12O+ O2

endothermic

500

Why do chemical equations have to be balanced?

Because conservation of mass means that matter cannot be created or destroyed which means that every atom must be accounted for in both the reactants and the products.
