The example of a chemical combination that can also be said to be a synthesis reaction is; $2Mg(s) +O_{2} (g) -- > 2 MgO(s)$

<h3>What is a synthesis reaction?</h3>

We know that the meaning of the synthesis reaction is quite central as we attempt to answer the question that is lying right before us here. If we are talking about the synthesis reaction then our mind must have to go to the kind of reaction in which there is the combination of two or more so as to produce a single compound.

As we are talking about the synthesis reaction, we would have to look at the reaction that would give rise to a single product as it has been written. Let us also recall that we have been told that the reaction is a oxidation-reduction reaction thus there is a change in oxidation number in the process of the reaction as shown.

kompoz [17]

Answer:

$2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\$

Explanation:

$2CH_{4(g)} +3O_{2(g)} -->2CO(g)+4H_{2}O_{(g)}\\CH_{4(g)} +2O_{2(g)} -->CO_{2(g)} +2H_{2}O_{(g)} \\$

The incomplete combustion of alkanes, and other fuels actually, happens when there is a limited supply of oxygen. Instead of the fuel burning completely to produce carbon dioxide, it produces carbon monoxide instead.

This gas is harmful to jumans because it combines with haemoglobin in lood and takes up space that belongs to oxygen which can lead to suffocation or even death

How many moles of MgSiO3 are in 237g of the compound?

Anna35 [415]

For this, we first calculate molecular weight of MgSiO₃:
Atomic masses:
Mg = 24
Si = 28
O = 16

Mr = 24 + 28 + 16 x 3
Mr = 100

moles = mass / Mr
moles = 237 / 100
moles = 2.37

Complete combustion of 5.90 g of a hydrocarbon produced 18.8 g of CO2 and 6.75 g of H2O.

Inessa05 [86]

First we have to find moles of C:
Molar mass of CO2:
12*1+16*2 = 44g/mol
(18.8 g CO2) / (44.00964 g CO2/mol) x (1 mol C/ 1 mol CO2) =0.427 mol C
Molar mass of H2O:
2*1+16 = 18g/mol
As there is 2 moles of H in H2O,
So,

(6.75 g H2O) / (18.01532 g H2O/mol) x (2 mol H / 1 mol H2O) = 0.74mol H 

Divide both number of moles by the smaller number of moles: 
As Smaaler no moles is 0.427:
So,
Dividing both number os moles by 0.427 :
(0.427 mol C) / 0.427 = 1.000 
(0.74 mol H) / 0.427 = 1.733 

To achieve integer coefficients, multiply by 2, then round to the nearest whole numbers to find the empirical formula:
C = 1 * 2 = 2
H = 1.733 * 2 =3.466
So , the empirical formula is C2H3
