Hydrogen is grouped with the alkali metals because they are grouped based on their properties and behavior, and like the other elements in Group 1 (1A), it only has one valence.
Answer:
Balancing Strategies: To balance this reaction it is best to get the Oxygen atoms on the reactant side of the equation to an even number. Once this is done everything else falls into place. Put a "2" in front of the NaClO3. Change the coefficient in front of the O2.
Answer:
A compound contains atoms of different elements chemically combined together in a fixed ratio. An element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atom. Compounds contain different elements in a fixed ratio arranged in a defined manner through chemical bonds. They contain only one type of molecule.
CH4+(x)O2=CO2 +(Y)H2O
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=2+? +H=?
H=4>>Y=2
C=1 +H=4 +O=? = C=1 +O=(2+2) +H=4
C=1 +H=4 +O=4 = C=1 +O=4 +H=4
O=4>>X=2
CH4+(2)O2 =CO2 +(2)H2O
