The elements are electrically neutral, this is they have the same amount of positive as negative charge.

Electrons and protons have each the same amount of charge but different sign. Eletrons are negative and protons are positive.

Then to be neutral, the number of electrons must be equal to the number of protons. This mean that the element must have 12 electrons.

Answer: 12.

Which of the following is the correct balanced equation for the reaction in which methane (CH4) burns in atmospheric oxygen (0₂)
Talja [164]

Answer: \text{CH}_{4}+2\text{O}_{2} \longrightarrow \text{CO}_{2}+2\text{H}_{2}\text{O}

Explanation:

The unbalanced equation is

\text{CH}_{4}+\text{O}_{2} \longrightarrow \text{CO}_{2}+\text{H}_{2}\text{O}

Balancing this equation, we get:

\boxed{\text{CH}_{4}+2\text{O}_{2} \longrightarrow \text{CO}_{2}+2\text{H}_{2}\text{O}}

if a volume of air occupying 12.0Lat 20celsius is heated to a new temperature of 100 celsius,what would be the new volume
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

V₂ = 15.3

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 12.0 L

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature =100°C

Final volume = ?

Solution:

First of all we will convert the temperature into kelvin.

20°C + 273 = 293 K

100°C + 273 = 373 K

Formula:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 12.0 L × 373 K / 293 k

V₂ = 4476 L.K /293 k

V₂ = 15.3

V₂ = 1566 L.K / 298 K

V₂ = 5.3 L
