Answer:

The coefficients for CH4; O2; CO2; H2O  are 1; 2; 1; 2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The reactants are : CH4 and 02

The products are CO2 and H2O

Step 2: The unbalanced equation

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

Step 3: Balancing the equation

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

On the left side we have 4x H (in CH4) on the right side we have 2x H in (H2O). To balance the amount of H on both sides, we have to multiply H2O on the right side by 2.

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

On the left side we have 2x O (in O2), on the right side we have 4x O (2x in CO2 and 2x in H2O). To multiply the amount of O on both side we have to multiply O2 on the left side by 2. Now the equation is balanced.

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

The coefficients for CH4; O2; CO2; H2O  are 1; 2; 1; 2

Answer:

The balanced equation is given below:

CH4 + 2O2 —> CO2 + 2H2O

The coefficients are: 1, 2, 1, 2

Explanation:

The equation for the Combustion of methane (CH4) is given below:

CH4 + O2 —> CO2 + H2O

Now we can balance the equation above as follow:

There are 4 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of H2O as shown below:

CH4 + O2 —> CO2 + 2H2O

Now, there are a total of 4 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of O2 as shown below:

CH4 + 2O2 —> CO2 + 2H2O

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 1, 2, 1, 2

What is the mass, in grams, of a piece of aluminum if its temperature changes from 25.0 ºC to 31.5 ºC when it absorbs 42.2 joule
Illusion [34]

Answer:

m = 7.29 grams

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial temperature, T₁ = 25ºC

Final temperature, T₂ = 31.5ºC

The specific heat of the metal is 0.89 J/gºC.

We know that the heat released due to the change in temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\m=\dfrac{Q}{c\Delta T}\\\\m=\dfrac{42.2 }{0.89\times (31.5-25)}\\\\m=7.29\ g

So, the mass of the piece is equal to 7.29 grams.

Define the following and give an example of each:_______.
Ber [7]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>\huge\textbf{Van de Waal}</h2>

London Dispersion force or Van de Waals force is a temporary attractive force which are the weakest and occur between nonpolar noble gases and same charges. This force is weaker because they have more electrons that are farther from the nucleus and are able to move around easier.

Example: N_2, F_2, \ I_2

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

\huge\textbf{Dipole - Dipole Forces}

Dipole force is present between the polar molecules. Polar molecules are those molecules which have slightly negative and slightly positive charge. Dipole-dipole forces are attractive forces between the positive end of one polar molecule and the negative end of another polar molecule.

Example: HCl, HF, CHCl_3

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

\huge\textbf{Hydrogen Bonding}

It is a special type of dipole force present between polar molecules, it is formed between Hydrogen atom which forms positive ion, and the other negative ion. It results from the attractive force between a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a very electronegative atom such as a N, O, or F atom. The hydrogen bond is one of the strongest intermolecular attractions, but weaker than a covalent or an ionic bond.

Example: Every polar molecule which has hydrogen has hydrogen bonding i.e. H_2O, NH_3
