Visual diagrams can make balancing chemical equations a bit tricky because they can be hard to understand.

Some Challenges:

• People might misunderstand the images.
• They could distract from the basic idea of the law of conservation of mass, which means that mass can't be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

To make things easier, we should:

• Use clear diagrams with labels so everyone knows what they mean.
• Pair visuals with simple math techniques to ensure the total number of atoms on both sides of the equation is the same.

For example, in the equation:
[ aA + bB \rightarrow cC + dD ]
we need to make sure that the number of “A” and “B” atoms on the left side matches the number of “C” and “D” atoms on the right side.
