Answer:

Coefficient of H_{2}O in the balanced equation with smallest possible integer is 6.

Explanation:

Unbalanced equation: Ca(OH)_{2}(aq.)+H_{3}PO_{4}(aq.)\rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(s)+H_{2}O(l)

Balance Ca: 3Ca(OH)_{2}(aq.)+H_{3}PO_{4}(aq.)\rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(s)+H_{2}O(l)

Balance PO_{4}  : 3Ca(OH)_{2}(aq.)+2H_{3}PO_{4}(aq.)\rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(s)+H_{2}O(l)

Balance H and O: 3Ca(OH)_{2}(aq.)+2H_{3}PO_{4}(aq.)\rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(s)+6H_{2}O(l)

Balanced equation: 3Ca(OH)_{2}(aq.)+2H_{3}PO_{4}(aq.)\rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(s)+6H_{2}O(l)

So coefficient of H_{2}O in the balanced equation with smallest possible integer is 6.

What are the resulting coefficients when you balance the chemical equation for the combustion of ethane, c2h6? in this reaction,
Vitek1552 [10]

Balance equation for combustion of ethane will be:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

To balance the equation:

1. Balance the number of carbon atom on both side:

C₂H₆(g) + O₂(g)--------> CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

1. balance the number of carbon on both side, as in reactant there are 2 but in product one,

so , multiply the CO₂, by 2 in the product.

2. Balance the number of hydrogen on both side as in reactant the number of hydrogen is 3 but in product it is 6 so, multiplythe number of  H₂O by 3,

so multiply the number of  H₂O by 3 in product.

3. Balance the number of oxygen on both side , as 1 and 2 step increases the number of oxygen and it becomes 7 , so to balance the number of oxygen on both side by mutiplying the  number of  O₂ by 7/2 in reactant .

4. Now, doubling the equation will give balance equation that is:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

What type of solvent would be required to dissolve nonpolar compounds?
mina [271]
For example, ionic compounds, which are very polar, are often soluble in the polar solvent water. Nonpolar substances are likely to dissolve in nonpolar solvents. For example, nonpolar molecular substances are likely to dissolve in hexane, a common nonpolar solvent.

A bar graph of boiling point of milk and water​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The boiling point of milk is close to the boiling point of water, which is 100 degrees C, or 212 degrees F at sea level, but milk contains additional molecules, so its boiling point is slightly higher.
