Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2

A chemical equation is balanced if the number of atom of elements on the reactant side is equal to the number of atom of elements on the product sides.

According to the equation above the chemical equation is balanced .From the equation 2 moles of sodium reacted with 2 moles of water to form 2 moles of sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

On the reactant side(left side), the sodium has 2 atom of sodium and the water molecule has 4 atom of hydrogen and 2 atom of oxygen.

On the product side(product side), the sodium hydroxide compound have 2 atom of sodium , 2 atoms of oxygen and 2 atoms of hydrogen . The hydrogen gas has 2 atoms of hydrogen. Adding the hydrogen atom on the product side will give you 4 atoms of hydrogen.

From the illustration above you could notice the equation is balanced.

Answer:

Percent Yield = 94.237%

Explanation:

CO = Carbon Dioxide = Molar Mass 28g/mol

C = Carbon = 12g/mol

O = Oxygen = 16g/mol

Theoretical yield = 93.7 grams

Actual yield = 88.3 grams

Percent yield = (actual yield /theoretical yield )x100

Percent Yield = (88.3/93.7)x100

Percent Yield = 94.237%

How many molecules are there in 45.0 grams of CH ?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

There are 1.8021 ⋅ 1024 molecules of CH4 in 48 grams of CH4. To answer this question, you must understand how to convert grams of a molecule into the number of molecules. To do this, you have to utilize the concepts of moles and molar mass. A mole is just a unit of measurement. Avogadro's number is equal to 6.022 ⋅1023 molecules/mole. i think please dont complain to me if its wrong im sorry

Why do most atoms form chemical bonds?

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Why do most atoms form chemical bonds? They want a full outer shell of electrons, so the lose, gain, or share electrons with other elements, forming compounds, until they have 8 valence electrons and become stable. Double and triple covalent bonds that have greater bond energy and are shorter than single bonds.
