Answer:
8CO + 17H2 = C8H18 + 8H2O
8, 17, 1, 8
Lose electrons - electrons want to fill their outer valence shell, so sometimes instead of gaining it is easier to lose some and have a filled outer shell
Answer:
Explanation:
C = 49.48
H = 5.19
O = 16.48
N = 28.85
ratio of moles
= 49.48 / 12 : 5.19 / 1 : 16.48 / 16 : 28.85 / 14
= 4.123 : 5.19 : 1.03 : 2.06
= 4 : 5 : 1 : 2
so the empirical formula = C₄ H₅O N₂
Let molecular formula = ( C₄ H₅ON₂ )ₙ ,
n ( 48 + 5 + 16 + 28 ) = 119.19
97 n = 194.19
n = 2 ( approx )
molecular formula = C₈ H₁₀O₂ N₄
Answer:
2KBr + MgF₂ –> 2KF + MgBr₂
The coefficients are: 2, 1, 2, 1
Explanation:
KBr + MgF₂ –> KF + MgBr₂
The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:
KBr + MgF₂ –> KF + MgBr₂
There are 2 atoms of F on the left side and 1 atom on the right. It can be balance by writing 2 before KF as shown below:
KBr + MgF₂ –> 2KF + MgBr₂
There 2 atoms of K on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by writing 2 before KBr as shown below:
2KBr + MgF₂ –> 2KF + MgBr₂
Now, the equation is balanced.
The coefficients are: 2, 1, 2, 1
