Answer:
CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O
Explanation:
CH4 + 2 O2 --> CO2 + 2 H2O is the only reaction where an element (oxygen) undergoes a change in oxidation state. In this reaction oxygen changes disproportionately to O⁻². That is ...
O₂ → CO₂ + 4e⁻ ==> oxidation
<u>O₂ + 4e⁻ → H₂O ==> reduction </u>
2O₂ + 4e⁻ → CO₂ + H₂O + 4e⁻ ==> Net oxidation-reduction
=> 4e⁻ gained by one mole O₂ in formation of CO₂ = 4e⁻ lost by the other mole O₂ in forming H₂O.
Then...
Including CH₄ (whose elements do not undergo changes in oxidation states) requires doubling reaction to balance by mass thus giving ...
2CH₄ + 2O₂ + 8e⁻ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O + 8e⁻
Cancelling 8 reduction electrons on left with 8 oxidation electrons on right gives...
2CH₄ + 2O₂ → 2CO₂ + 2H₂O
Answer:
Isomers of hydrocarbons have the <u>molecular</u> formula but <u>structural</u> formula.
Explanation:
Molecules with the same structural formula, but different molecular geometries (spatial arrangement) are called isomers. These differences in the arrangement of the various atoms confer certain differences in chemical properties to the resulting hydrocarbons, even though their chemical composition is the same. There are two types of isomers:
Structural isomers: Here, each atom are connected or bonded in different ways, hence structural isomers may contain different functional groups or pattern of bonding. structural isomers are further divided into: chain, position, and functional group isomers.
Stereoisomers: Here, the connections of the atoms are the same, but the difference is in their orientation in space
Answer:
There are many benefits to being fit.
Explanation:
Fitness isn't just about the physical part but also the mental wellbeing. For example the physical involves exercising, not just to lose weight or look more beautiful (remember everyone has unique looks) but to live longer, reduce the rick of diseases such as heart diseases and to enhance our bodies. Whereas the mental has to do with the brain, how you train the brain e.g logic puzzles, riddles and so on.
