Worked practice questions

The number written to the left of a formula in a chemical equation is called a:

  1. Coefficient
  2. Coordinate
  3. Compression
  4. Combination
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Coefficient

1. It tells how many units of that species take part. 2. It sits immediately before the chemical formula. 3. That number is a coefficient. _Source: OpenStax Chemistry 2e, Chapter 4, Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions._

An equation with equal numbers of each element on both sides is described as:

  1. Buffered
  2. Balanced
  3. Bonded
  4. Boiled
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Balanced

1. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a reaction. 2. So each element must be counted equally on both sides. 3. Such an equation is balanced. _Source: OpenStax Chemistry 2e, Chapter 4, Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions._

A chemist writes a coefficient of one in front of a formula. Convention says this should be:

  1. Omitted
  2. Doubled
  3. Circled
  4. Bracketed
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. Omitted

1. One unit is what a bare formula already means. 2. Writing the digit adds nothing to the meaning. 3. So a coefficient of one is omitted. _Source: OpenStax Chemistry 2e, Chapter 4, Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions._
