Subscripts state how many atoms and Coefficients state how many molecules there are. So when balancing an equation you always adjust the coefficients.
When this equation is balanced, what is the coefficient for Ni(NOËÄ)ËÄ? 4
Yes, when balancing a chemical equation, you only change the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to balance the number of atoms on both sides of the equation. Subscripts, which represent the number of atoms within a molecule, remain unchanged as they reflect the actual chemical formula of the compound.
You only change the coefficients NOT the subscripts. You cannot change the actual subscripts eg Na2 but you can place a number in front of it eg: if i wanted one sodium but in the equation it has Na2 +HCl.............i can place 1/2 in front of the Na2to denote one Na. when i do this i am multiplying by the subscript: 1/2 Na2 -----> (1/2) * (2)=1.
No, subscripts cannot be changed in a chemical formula to balance a chemical equation. Balancing a chemical equation involves adjusting the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to ensure that the number of each type of atom is the same on both sides of the equation. Changing subscripts would alter the chemical identities of the substances involved.

Coefficients of molecules are adjusted.
When balancing a chemical equation, you can adjust the coefficients (numbers in front of the elements or compounds) to balance the number of atoms on each side of the equation. You cannot change the subscripts within a chemical formula as this would change the identity of the compound. The only modifications allowed are changing the coefficients to achieve balance.
Yes, when balancing a chemical equation, coefficients are adjusted to ensure that the number of each type of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction. This helps maintain the law of conservation of mass.
Balancing only allows you to change the coefficients, NOT the subscripts.

It is important to never change the subscript in a chemical formula when balancing a chemical equation because subscripts represent the number of atoms of each element in the compound. Changing subscripts would alter the chemical formula and consequently change the identity of the compounds involved in the reaction. Balancing equations involves adjusting coefficients, not subscripts.
Changing subscripts in a chemical formula changes the identity of the compound, which is not allowed when balancing chemical equations. Balancing equations involves adjusting the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to ensure that the same number of each type of atom is present on both sides of the equation.
Changing subscripts in a chemical formula changes the identity of the compound being represented. Balancing a chemical equation involves changing the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to ensure that the same number of each type of atom is present on both sides of the equation.
No, subscripts cannot be changed in a chemical formula to balance a chemical equation. Balancing a chemical equation involves adjusting the coefficients in front of the chemical formulas to ensure that the number of each type of atom is the same on both sides of the equation. Changing subscripts would alter the chemical identities of the substances involved.
Changing subscripts changes the chemical formula, leading to a different compound being represented. When balancing a chemical equation, you can only add coefficients to the compounds to ensure mass is conserved on both sides of the equation while keeping their identities the same. Changing subscripts would alter the chemical substances involved in the reaction.
Changing subscripts in a chemical formula changes the actual chemical species present, leading to a different reaction. Subscripts represent the ratio of elements in a compound and should not be changed to balance chemical equations. Balancing equations is done by adjusting coefficients in front of chemical formulas, not by changing subscripts.
You adjust the coefficients in front of each molecule to balance the number of atoms on both sides of the equation. You should not change the subscripts within a molecule when balancing a chemical equation.
