For the equation:

_{}C_8H_{18}+O_2\to CO_2+H_2O

We can balance it in many ways. It is better to balance it using C₈H₁₈ as reference.

Let's balance element by element.

For Carbon, C, we have, for now, 8 of them on the left side and 1 of them on the right side. For it to be balanced, we can multiply the compound of the right side by 8, like this:

_{}C_8H_{18}+O_2\to8CO_2+H_2O

Now, we have 8 carbons in each side, which is ok for now.

For hydrogen, H, we have 18 on the left side and 2 on the right side. To balance it, we can multiply the part on the right side by 9:

_{}C_8H_{18}+O_2\to8CO_2+9H_2O

Now, we have 18 in each side and we didn't change the C balance.

Next, for oxygen, O, we have 2 on the left side and 16 plus 9 on the right side, a total of 25.

If we change something on the right side, we will change the C or H balance, so let's chenge the left side.

We can only balance it by multiplying by 12.5, which is not normal, but that will do for now:

C_8H_{18}+12.5O_2\to8CO_2+9H_2O_{}

Now, everything is balanced, but we have a "12.5" coefficient. It is not wrong, but we can turn it into an integer to make it better. To do this, we can multiply it by 2, but to don't change the balance of the others, we mmultiply all coefficients by 2:

2_{}C_8H_{18}+25O_2\to16CO_2+18H_2O

Now, every element is balanced.

If a gun is found in water, what should investigators do to transport it to the lab?
GREYUIT [131]
<span>Most items of evidence will be collected in paper containers such as packets, envelopes, and bags. Liquid items can be transported in non-breakable, leakproof containers. Arson evidence is usually collected in air-tight, clean metal cans. Only large quantities of dry powder should be collected and stored in plastic bags. Moist or wet evidence (blood, plants, etc.) from a crime scene can be collected in plastic containers at the scene and transported back to an evidence receiving area if the storage time in plastic is two hours or less and this is done to prevent contamination of other evidence. Once in a secure location, wet evidence, whether packaged in plastic or paper, must be removed and allowed to completely air dry. That evidence can then be repackaged in a new, dry paper container. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD EVIDENCE CONTAINING MOISTURE BE PACKAGED IN PLASTIC OR PAPER CONTAINERS FOR MORE THAN TWO HOURS. Moisture allows the growth of microorganisms which can destroy or alter evidence.

The bond energy between carbon and oxygen is 358 for a single bond (C-0) and 745 for a double bond (C=0). Why is the bond energy
steposvetlana [31]

As  Bond energy is between carbon and oxygen the is 358 for a single bond of C-0 and 745 for a double bond is the  c=0.

  • In the first step the one atom pulls the electron from another atom . In the second step that is forming bonds releases energy and is the exothermic . In the third step they pull electrons away from other elements .
  • In the last step the additional bonds is needed more energy to make or break, so the bond energy is very higher  Hence the  -153.

Learn more about the energy between carbon and oxygen is 358.
