How are coefficients used to balance chemical equations?

Chemistry

Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
4 0
According to the law of conservation of mass, the quantity of the elements, involved in chemical reactions does not change. For example,
H2O2 - > H2O + O2
is wrong, because there are two O atoms on the first side of the equation, and three on the other. To correct it, coefficients must be added, until the amount of both H and O atoms is equal on both sides.
2H2O2 - > 2H2O + O2

Explanation:

Our Universe is just a small part. There are many other Universes’ that exist. We live in a Multiverse. ...

Astronomer Edwin Hubble, in 1920’s, discovered that the Universe is not static. It is expanding and contracting continuously.

There is a dark energy that is making the Universe expand and accelerate at a larger rate than it did many years ago. ...

The Universe is infinite. It has no end. Thus scientists believe that the Universe is not a closed sphere but as flat as a sheet of paper and has no ...

According to the scientists the planets, stars and galaxies include only 4% of what a Universe consists of. 96% of the things in the Universe cannot be seen.

Arizona was the site of a 400,000-acre wildfire in June 2002. How much carbon dioxide (CO2) was produced into the atmosphere by
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

2.97 × 10¹³ g

Explanation:

First, we have to calculate the biomass the is burned. We can establish the following relations:

  • 2.47 acre = 10,000 m²
  • 10 kg of C occupy an area of 1 m²
  • 50% of the biomass is burned

The biomass burned in the site of 400,000 acre is:

400,000acre\times\frac{10,000m^{2} }{2.47acre} \times \frac{10kgC}{m^{2} } \times 50\% = 8.10 \times 10^{9} kgC

Let's consider the combustion of carbon.

C(s) + O₂(g) ⇒ CO₂(g)

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of C is 12.01 g/mol
  • 1 mole of C produces 1 mole of CO₂
  • The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol

The mass of  produced is CO₂:

8.10 \times 10^{12}gC \times \frac{1molC}{12.01gC} \times \frac{1molCO_{2}}{1molC} \times \frac{44.01gCO_{2}}{1molCO_{2}} =2.97 \times 10^{13} gCO_{2}
