Is there any trick to remember the chemical equations?

Answer 1

once you know the symbols for the elements it gets easier. it's just straight memorization for complex ions though.

Answer 2

That's today's problem, I think. We are so interested in finding shortcuts to cut down on our work, we spend more mental energy on that when that same energy could be used to just plain study.

There is no "trick" to memorizing or using or balancing a "generic" equation. The best tip I offer is practice, practice, practice.

I strongly urge my students to plant themselves in front of a markerboard or blackboard or whatever, and keep working on the subject at hand until they are comfortable with it and know they've mastered it.

Answer 3

Yes, DONT - cram before the test - and hope you remember. Do you want to end up like the Chem Prof up there (no offense).

Believe it or not - it actually works - you'll forget a lot, but you'll remember a lot too.

How do you do REMEMBER ANYTHING about chemistry?
It is simple.

You must love Chemistry...overall the rest.
Chemistry must become your Inner Fire and Desire.

You start thinking "Chemistry is anything I see and I touch, all is atom's constitued".

There is Chemistry and after, there's Chemistry again.

I hope to be clear.
