Answer: ABOUT 71% PERCENT OF EARTH'S SURFACE IS WATER COVERED,OUT OF THAT ONLY 2.5 %IS FRESH WATER.WE GETS DRINKING WATER FROM CLEAN RIVERS ,LAKES AND EVEN GROUND WATER. WE ALSO FILTERS THE SEA WATERS TOO.

WE HUMANS ARE THE ONE WHO ACTUALLY POLLUTE  THE WATER BODIES, BECAUSE WE THROW DOMESTIC AND INDUSTRY WASTES IN THE WATER BODIES AND THE AQUATIC ANIMALS ARE DYING BECAUSE OF THIS ACT. IF WE SAVE  THE WATER BODIES THEN THERE WOULD NO BE ANY POLLUTION etc

Balance this equation. If a coefficient of "1" is required, choose "blank" for that box. C2H6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
fenix001 [56]
Step 1: Write the unbalanced equation,

                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →    CO₂  +  H₂<span>O

There are 2 C at left hand side and 1 carbon at right hand side. So, multiply CO</span>₂ by 2 to balance C atoms at both side. So,

                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  H₂O

Now, count number of H atoms at both sides. There are 6 H atoms at left hand side and 2 at right hand side. Multiply H₂O by 3 to balance H atoms.


                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

At last, balance O atoms. There are 2 O atoms at left hand side and 3 O atoms at right hand side. Multiply O₂ with 1.5 (i.e. 3/2) to balance O atoms. i.e.

                                 C₂H₆  +  3/2 O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

Hence, the equation is balanced. If you want to make equation fraction free then multiply all equation with 2. i.e.

                           ( C₂H₆  +  3/2 O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O ) × 2

                                2 C₂H₆  +  3 O₂    →   4 CO₂  +  6 H₂O

How many moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 grams of aluminum
labwork [276]

Answer:

2.4 moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 g of aluminium.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

4Al(s)  + 3O₂(l)   → 2AlO₃(s)

Given data:

Mass of aluminium = 87 g

Moles of oxygen needed = ?

Solution:

Moles of aluminium:

Number of moles of aluminium= Mass/ molar mass

Number of moles of aluminium= 87 g/ 27 g/mol

Number of moles of aluminium= 3.2 mol

Now we will compare the moles of aluminium with oxygen.

                              Al         :         O₂

                               4          :         3

                               3.2       :         3/4×3.2 = 2.4 mol

2.4 moles of oxygen are needed to react with 87 g of aluminium.
