CaO + H2O → Ca(OH)2

the number of O atom on the left side is 1 and on the right side 2 so,

we put 2H2O instead of H2O 

CaO + 2H2O → Ca(OH)2 

now we have to put 2Ca(OH)2 instead of Ca(OH)2 to make H atoms equal on both sides 4

CaO + 2H2O → 2Ca(OH)2

now we have to put 2CaO instead of CaO to make Ca atoms equal on both sides 2 atoms.

∴ the final balanced equation is:

2CaO + 2H2O → 2 Ca(OH)2

∴ the coefficients are 2 2 2

State why chemical equations are useful
meriva
<span>A Chemical equation is useful because it shows all the elements or compounds involved on a chemical reaction. It also shows which elements or compounds are the products and which are the reactants.  The behavior of each element or compound can also be seen in the equation, on what each element or compound did as to where they went or what they formed when they reacted.  Chemical equations are very useful because all information are found in one equation, thus, no need for a lot of reading.</span>

Please help, once again. Can't seem to get this...
sveta [45]
In one H₂O molecule, there are two hydrogen atoms along with one oxygen atom. So for every 1 oxygen atom (of which there are 2 of in an oxygen gas molecule) there needs to be 2 hydrogen atoms per oxygen( which in the equation of 2H2 +O2–> 2H2, that 2 H2 is broken down into 4 hydrogen atoms which means 2 hydrogen atoms have to bond to 1 oxygen atom and with 4 hydrogen atoms, there will be 2 atoms of oxygen which creates 2 molecules of water.

So to solve the question,
10.5g/2=5.25g of oxygen required to fully react with hydrogen to make water
