Answer:

3

Explanation:

The unbalanced combustion reaction of the oxidation of propane is shown below as:-

C_3H_8+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

On the left hand side,

There are 3 carbon atoms and 8 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms

On the right hand side,

There are 1 carbon atom and 2 hydrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms

Thus,

Right side, CO_2 must be multiplied by 3 and H_2O by 4 so to balance carbon and hydrogen.

Left side, O_2 is multiplied by 5 so to balance the whole reaction.

Thus, the balanced reaction is:-

C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O

<u>Coefficient in front of the carbon dioxide in the balanced equation - 3</u>

Demand decreases and competition increases are factors that cause a shift in the quantity supplied (true or false)
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer is: true.

Demand decreases and competition increases decrease the quantity supplied.

Quantity supplied is the quantity of a commodity that producers are willing to sell at a particular price at a particular point of time.

Quantity demanded is the quantity of a commodity that people are willing to buy at a particular price at a particular point of time.

Quantity demanded can change at the same price depending upon factors like recession, changes in the taste of the consumer.

Competition is rivalry between two or more economic groups.

Select all the correct images<br><br> Select the atoms that belong to the same element
mezya [45]

Answer: Atoms with 11 protons, 10 neutrons and 11 electrons belong to the same element with 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 11 electrons.

Explanation:

Elements that contain same number of valence electrons belong to the same group. This is because they will have same reactivity (or properties) due to which they lie in the same group.

For example, element with 11 protons, 10 neutrons and 11 electrons is same as the element with 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 11 electrons.

Hence, both these atoms belong to the same element.

Thus, we can conclude that atoms with 11 protons, 10 neutrons and 11 electrons belong to the same element with 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 11 electrons.

Which gas diffuses most rapidly when they are all at the same temperature and pressure? He, O2, NH3, H2S, or They all diffuse at
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

He

Explanation:

From Graham's law of diffusion, lighter or less dense gas tends to diffuse faster than denser gas amongst the list, He is the lightest gas and so will diffuse faster
