Answer:
2CO 2NO → 2CO2 N2 : Balanced
6CO2 6H2O → C6H12O6 : Unbalanced
H2CO3 → H2O CO2 : Balanced
2Cu O2 → CuO : Unbalanced
Explanation:
1.) 2CO 2NO → 2CO2 N2
2 Carbon 2
4 Oxygen 4
2 Nitrogen 2
The amount of atoms of each element on each side of the equation are the same therefore the equation is balanced.
2.) 6CO2 6H2O → C6H12O6 O2
6 Carbon 6
12 Oxygen 8
12 Hydrogen 12
The amount of oxygen atoms is different on both sides of the equation therefore the equation is not balanced.
3.) H2CO3 → H2O CO2
2 Hydrogen 2
1 Carbon 1
3 Oxygen 3
The amount of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation therefore the equation is balanced.
2Cu O2 → CuO.
2 Cu 2
2 O 1
The amount of oxygen atoms is different on both sides of the equation therefore the equation is not balanced.
What do you want us to work out?
Answer:
a. BH₃
Explanation:
According to the octet rules, atoms reach stability when are surrounded by eight electrons in their valence shell when they combine to form a chemical compound.
From the options, the only compound in which the central atom does not meet the octet rules is BH₃. The central atom is boron (B), which has 3 electrons in its valence shell. When B is combined with hydrogen (H), 3 electrons from the 3 atoms of H are added. The total amount of electrons is 6, fewer than 8 electrons needed to meet the rule.
