Why chemical equations must be balanced.

What is because mass cannot be created or destroyed?

200

The classification for AB → A + B.

What is a decomposition reaction?

200

Although it is the substance being reduced, this reactant is given this title because it enables another substance to lose its electrons.

What is the oxidizing agent

300

This value is calculated by dividing the mass of the product actually produced in the lab by the maximum mass predicted by stoichiometry, then multiplying by 100.

What is percent yield
