The products of the reaction of C4H10 with oxygen would be combustion products which are CO2 and H2O. When balancing chemical reactions, it is important to remember that the number of atoms in each side should be equal.

<span>C4H10 + 13/2O2 = 4CO2 + 5H2O</span>

Answer: 2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

Explanation: Combustion is a reaction in which a hydrocarbon combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water.

Butane C_4H_{10} is a hydrocarbon as it consists of carbon and hydrogen and thus when it combust, it produces carbon dioxide and water.

2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O

The chemical equation follow the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. The number of  atoms on the product side must be same as the number of atoms on the product side.Thus the equation needs to be balanced.

Which statements are true? Check all that apply. Check all that apply. The higher the temperature, the more soluble most ionic s
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The higher the temperature, the more soluble most ionic solids are in water

As you cool a saturated solution from high temperature to low temperature, solids start to crystallize out of solution if you achieve a supersaturated solution.

If you raise the temperature of a saturated solution, you can (usually) add more solute and make the solution even more concentrated.

Explanation:

For many ionic solids, solubility in water increases with increase in the temperature of the solution.

This implies that increasing the temperature allow more solute to dissolve in the solvent, supersaturation may be achieved by so doing. As the solution is cooled, the solid crystalizes out of solution hence the answers above.

Match the following chemical reactions:
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Synthesis - 4

reversible- 2

exchange- 1

decomposition-3

Explanation:

In synthesis reaction two or more components combines to form a single product. example 2H2+O2⇒2H2O

In reversible reaction two reactants combine to form two products . The products then reacts and forms back the reactants. example N2 +3H2 ⇒2NH3

In exchange reaction there is an alternation of ions of reactants to form new products. AB+CD ⇒AC + BD

In decomposition reaction, molecules of a compound break down by the action of heat or light or catalyst. example CaCO3 ⇒CaO +CO2
