Balancing chemical equations
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

2B2 + 3O2 → 2B2O3

Explanation:

Balance The Equation: B2 + O2 = B2O3

1. Label Each Compound With a Variable

  aB2 + bO2 = cB2O3

2. Create a System of Equations, One Per Element

  B: 2a + 0b = 2c

  O: 0a + 2b = 3c

3. Solve For All Variables (using substitution, gauss elimination, or a calculator)

  a = 2

  b = 3

  c = 2

4. Substitute Coefficients and Verify Result

  2B2 + 3O2 = 2B2O3

      L R

  B: 4 4 ✔️

  O: 6 6 ✔️

hope this helps!

The main acid in the stomach is hydrochloric acid (HCl). Which chemical equations show a reaction that occurs when someone takes
777dan777 [17]
I think the correct answer would be HCl + NaHCO3 -> NaCl + H2O + CO2, 2HCl + CaCO3 -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O, 2HCl + Mg(OH)2 -> MgCl2 + 2H2O. Hydrochloic acid would react with the basic substances in the stomach which are magnesium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate and <span>calcium carbonate.</span>

Methanol can be produced by the following reaction: CO(g) 2 H2(g) CH3OH(g). How is the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas rel
belka [17]

Answer:

r_{H_2}=-2r_{CH_3OH}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

CO(g)+ 2 H_2(g) \rightarrow CH_3OH(g)

In such a way, via the rate proportions, that is written considering the stoichiometric coefficients, we obtain:

\frac{1}{-1} r_{CO}=\frac{1}{-2} r_{H_2}=\frac{1}{1} r_{CH_3OH}

Whereas the reactants, CO and H2 have negative stoichiometric coefficients; therefore the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas is related to the rate of appearance of methanol as shown below:

\frac{1}{-2} r_{H_2}=\frac{1}{1} r_{CH_3OH}\\\\r_{H_2}=\frac{-2}{1} r_{CH_3OH}\\\\r_{H_2}=-2r_{CH_3OH}

Which means that the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas is negative and the rate of appearance of methanol is positive.

Regards!
