Balance the combustion eqation; __C5H + __O2 ---&gt; __CO2+__H2O
stira [4]
This equation C5H + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O has a mistake.

C5H is wrong. You missed the subscript of H.

I will do it for you assuming some subscript to show you the procedure, but you have to use the right equation to get the right balanced equation.

Assuming the tha combustion equation is C5H12 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

First you need to  balance C, so you put a 5 before CO2 and get

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + H2O

Now you count the hydrogens: 12 on the left and 2 on the right. So put a 6 before H2O and get:

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now count the oxygens: 2 on the left and 16 on the right, so put an 8 on before O2:

=> C5H12 + 8O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O.

You can verify that the equation is balanced

koban [17]

Answer:

C.) Alpha, beta, and gamma particles

Explanation:

A dense shield of aluminium can protect Cole from all the listed types of radiation produced from the radioactive particles.

A radioactive protector has very unique and specie ability to contain and prevent the movement of radiations of any types from going into the body.

The strongest and most penetrating radiations are the gamma rays. Any material that can prevent the movement of these rays can halt alpha and beta particles too.

An aluminium shield is made up of multiple layers of aluminium stacked together and it provides enough resistance.

A student is studying a sample of carbon dioxide gas inside a small syringe. At constant temperature the syringe has a volume of
Soloha48 [4]

The new pressure inside the syringe will be 1.25 atm

<h3>Gas law</h3>

At constant temperatures, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure.

Thus:   P1V1 = P2V2

In this case, P1 = 3.0 atm, V1 = 89.6 mL, V2 = 215 mL

P2 = P1V1/V2

                         = 3 x 89.6/215

                              = 1.25 atm
