This KS4 resource is more than just balancing equations - it focusses on working out the mass of product that is formed during reactions. 

For the first few questions students are given the balanced equation and the quantities of reactants. For later questions, they have to balance the equation first and then work out the yield.

If marking in class then it could be further extended the exercise by asking students to work out the percentage yield by giving them some 'actual' amounts of products to calculate with.

The answers are included for self-assessment.
