Identify the correct coefificients to balance it<br> -C3H8+O2 to -CO2 +-H2O
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

{\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm 5\; O_2} \to {3\; \rm CO_2} + {4\; \rm H_2O}.

Explanation:

{\rm ?\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {?\; \rm CO_2} + {?\; \rm H_2O}.

Among the four species in this reaction, \rm C_3H_8 is species with the largest number of atoms per molecule. Assume that the coefficient of this compound is 1.

{\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {?\; \rm CO_2} + {?\; \rm H_2O}.

Number of atoms on the left-hand side of the reaction:

  • \rm C: 1 \times 3 = 3.
  • \rm H: 1 \times 8 = 8.
  • \rm O: not found yet.

By the conservation of atoms, the number of atoms on the right-hand side of the reaction should match those on the left-hand side. In this reaction, \rm CO_2 is the only product with carbon atoms, whereas \rm H_2O is the only product with hydrogen atoms. These 3 carbon atoms and 8 hydrogen atoms would correspond to:

  • 3 / 1 = 3 \rm CO_2 molecules, and
  • 8 / 2 = 4 \rm H_2O molecules.

{\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm ?\; O_2} \to {3\; \rm CO_2} + {4\; \rm H_2O}.

Number of atoms on the right-hand side of the reaction:

  • \rm C: 3 \times 1 = 3.
  • \rm H: 4 \times 2 = 8.
  • \rm O: 3 \times 2 + 4 \times 1 = 10.

The number of \rm O atoms on the left-hand side should match those on the right-hand side. In this reaction, \rm O_2 is the only reactant with \rm O\! atoms. These 10 \rm \! O atoms would correspond to:

  • 5 \rm O_2 molecules.

{\rm 1\; C_3H_8} + {\rm 5\; O_2} \to {3\; \rm CO_2} + {4\; \rm H_2O}.

In a redox reaction, how does the total number of electrons lost by the oxidized substance compare to the total number of electr
snow_lady [41]
The answer is (2) equal to. In redox reactions, you can't just lose electrons somewhere. If an electrons is lost by one, it must be gained by another. Hence, the importance of balancing redox reactions.

How many hydrogen atoms are attached to each carbon adjacent to a double bond? nurition?
larisa [96]
That depends. there are 2 possible answers.
      H
C - C = C - H gives a different answer on the right than on the left.

One the left side, the second Carbon is attached to a double bond and has but one hydrogen attached to it.

The Carbon on the right of the double bond has 2
     H
C- C = C - H
            H

I'm not sure what you should put. It's one of those things that I would repeat my argument and submit it.
