balanced equation
Stoichiometrically correct formula
A balanced equation is a chemical equation in which the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides, reflecting the conservation of mass.
Coefficients are adjusted so that what goes into a reaction matches what comes out: Balance the equation by putting a 2 in front of H₂O.
The term occasionally extends to any equation where both sides are equal.
