<span>Mass of CH2 = 12 + 2 = 14 g/mol
The number of CH2s there are.
So since the total mass is 84.2 g/mol.
The solution is
84.2/14 = 6.012 thus the answer is 6
There are 6(CH2)
So the molecular formula is C6H12</span>
The ion in the cathode that gains electrons
The answer is
<span>2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g)
Your answer is not yet balanced because you have 3 oxygen atoms. it should be balanced by multiplying both side by 2 such as the balanced equation I made. To check it, I will explain why your answer is not yet balanced.
check: (from your equation)
</span> 1-Pb-1
1-S-1
2 -O-3
the difference between the reactant and the product of Oxygen will prove that it is not yet balanced.
If you use 2PbS(s) + 3O2(g) = 2PbO(s) + 2SO2(g), to check it:
2-Pb-2
2-S-2
6 -O-6
then this is now balance
I have not taken Chemistry in a year but I remember that if you look at a periodic table there are certain sections for polar and non polar elements. I dont know if you have learned that yet
