Balance mass and balance charge........

All of these reactions are acid-base ones.

#HCl(aq) + LiOH(aq) rarr LiCl(aq) + H_2O(l)#

#HClO_4(aq) + KOH(aq) rarr KClO_4(aq) + H_2O(l)#

#H_2SO_4(aq) + NaOH(aq) rarr NaHSO_4(aq) + H_2O(l)#

The steps involved in completing and balancing a chemical equation are as follows: 1. Write down the imbalanced equation; 2. Count the number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation; 3. Add coefficients to the compounds to balance the number of atoms on each side; 4. Make sure the coefficients are in the smallest whole number ratio. For instance, to balance the equation [CH_4 + O_2 \rightarrow CO_2 + H_2O] you would first count the atoms: - Carbon: 1 on the left, 1 on the right; - Hydrogen: 4 on the left, 2 on the right; - Oxygen: 2 on the left, 3 on the right; - After that, add coefficients to balance the equation: [CH_4 + 2O_2 \rightarrow CO_2 + 2H_2O].

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
