Metals react with oxygen to give oxides with the general formula MxOy. What is a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of
katovenus [111]

Answer: 4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here iron is having an oxidation state of +3 called as Fe^{3+} cation and oxide O^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral Fe_2O_3.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Naturally occurring europium (Eu) consists of two isotopes was a mass of 151 and 153 . Europium-151 has an abundance of 48.03% a
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

151.94 u

Explanation:

The atomic mass of Eu is the <em>weighted average</em> of the atomic masses of its isotopes.

We multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by a number representing its relative importance (i.e., its <em>percent abundance</em>).

The atomic masses of Eu-151 and Eu-153 are 150.92 u and 152.92 u, respectively.

Set up a table for easy calculation.

0.4803 × 150.92 u =  72.472 u

0.5197 × 152.92 u  = <u> 79.473 u </u>

                 TOTAL = 151.94  u

Propane gas reacts with oxygen according to this balanced equation: C subscript 3 H subscript 8 space (g )space plus space 5 spa
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

C_3H_8(g)+ 5O_2 (g)->3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

From the balanced chemical equation,

1 mole of propane forms ------ 3 mol. of CO_2 gas.

The molar mass of propane is 44.1 g/mol.

One mole of any gas at STP occupies --- 22.4 L.

Hence, 44 g of propane forms (3x22.4 L=) 67.2 L of CO2 gas at STP.

Answer:

Thus, 67.2 L of CO2 is formed at STP.
