This is the decomposition reaction, namely the reaction of photolysis.

2AgCl = 2Ag + Cl₂

Balance the reaction for the combustion of pentane: ?C5H12+?O2→?CO2+?H2O Enter the four coefficients in order, separated by comm
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The four coefficients in order, separated by commas are 1, 8, 5, 6

Explanation:

We count the atoms in order to balance this combustion reaction. In combustion reactions, the products are always water and carbon dioxide.

C₅H₁₂  +  ?O₂→  ?CO₂ + ?H₂O

We have 12 hydrogen in right side and we can balance with 6 in the left side. But the number of oxygen is odd. We add 2 in the  right side, so we have 24 H, and in the product side we add a 12.

As we add 2 in the C₅H₁₂, we have 10 C, so we must add 10 to the CO₂ in the product side.

Let's count the oxygens: 20 from the CO₂ + 12 from the water = 32.

We add 16 in the reactant side. Balanced equation is:

2C₅H₁₂  + 16O₂→  10CO₂ + 12H₂O

We also can divide by /2 in order to have the lowest stoichiometry

C₅H₁₂  + 8O₂→  5CO₂ + 6H₂O

At stp which gas will diffuse more readily than ne
pav-90 [236]
I am assuming you are talking about Neon. The rate of diffusion is directly proportional to the molar mass of the gas. Since neon has a molar mass of 20.18 grams, the gas must have a lower molar mass and must be a gas at 273 Kelvin. There are several elements that fulfill this criteria: Hydrogen, Helium, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Fluorine.

If 9.85 grams of copper metal react with 31.0 grams of silver nitrate, how many grams of copper nitrate can be formed and how ma
goldfiish [28.3K]
The balanced chemical reaction:

<span>Cu + 2AgNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag
</span>
We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point of our calculations.

9.85 g Cu ( 1 mol Cu / 63.55 g Cu ) = 0.15 mol Cu
31.0 g AgNO3 ( 1 mol AgNO3 / 169.87 g AgNO3 ) = 0.18 mol AgNO3

The limiting reactant is AgNO3.

0.18 mol AgNO3 ( 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 / 2 mol AgNO3 ) (187.56 g / 1 mol) =16.88 g Cu(NO3)2

0.15 mol Cu - 0.18 mol AgNO3 ( 1 mol Cu / 2 mol AgNo3) = 0.06 mol Cu excess

<span>0.06 mol Cu ( 63.55 g Cu / 1 mol Cu ) = 3.81 g Cu excess</span>
