Answer:

2.954grams of pottasium for that week

Explanation:

According to this question, a medium-sized that weighs 118grams contains 422 milligrams (mg) of potassium nutrient.

If someone eats a medium-sized banana each day for a week, this means that the person has consumed 422mg of pottasium that day.

Since there are 7days in a week, the person will consume 422 × 7 = 2954 mg of pottasium that week.

The question asks for the total pottasium intake in grams for that week, hence, we need to convert 2954 milligrams to grams.

1000mg = 1 g

Hence, 2954mg will be 2954/1000

= 2.954grams

Therefore, 2.954grams of pottasium are ingested by that person that week.

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2
Igoryamba

Answer:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

Explanation:

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2

The equation can be balance as follow:

Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2

Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
