Water is the only common substance that when you freeze it, it's volume INCREASES.

When the pipe originally held the "all full" volume and the the water expanded, it put a tremendous amount of pressure on the pipe. Enough pressure and the pipe would burst.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

_5_ AsO2−(aq) + 3 Mn2+(aq) + _2_ H2O(l) → _5_ As(s) + _3_ MnO4−(aq) + _4_ H+(aq)

Explanation:

Step 1:

The unbalanced equation:

AsO2−(aq) + 3 Mn2+(aq) + H2O(l) → As(s) + MnO4−(aq) + H+(aq)

Step 2:

Balancing the equation.

AsO2−(aq) + 3Mn2+(aq) + H2O(l) → As(s) + MnO4−(aq) + H+(aq)

The above equation can be balanced as follow:

There are 3 atoms of Mn on the left side of the equation and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of MnO4− as shown below:

AsO2−(aq) + 3Mn2+(aq) + H2O(l) → As(s) + 3MnO4−(aq) + H+(aq)

There are 12 atoms of O on the right side and a total of 3 atoms on the left side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of AsO2− and 2 in front of H2O as shown below:

5AsO2−(aq) + 3Mn2+(aq) + 2H2O(l) → As(s) + 3MnO4−(aq) + H+(aq)

There are 4 atoms of H on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of H+ as shown below:

5AsO2−(aq) + 3Mn2+(aq) + 2H2O(l) → As(s) + 3MnO4−(aq) + 4H+(aq)

There are 5 atoms of As on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of As as shown below:

5AsO2−(aq) + 3Mn2+(aq) + 2H2O(l) → 5As(s) + 3MnO4−(aq) + 4H+(aq)

Now the equation is balanced
