2C₂H₆  + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

Explanation:

The given reaction is combustion of ethane. Ethane burns in the presence of oxygen and gives carbondioxide and water.

Chemical equation:

C₂H₆  + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆  + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

C₂H₆  + O₂                          →                CO₂ + H₂O

In reactant side                                    in product side

C = 2                                                          C = 1

H = 6                                                          H = 2

O = 2                                                          O = 3

Multiply the reactant side C₂H₆ with 4 and O₂ 7.

2C₂H₆  + 7O₂                          →                CO₂ + H₂O

C = 4

H = 12

O = 14

Now multiply the CO₂ and  H₂O with a coefficient so that C =4, H = 12 and O = 14

2C₂H₆  + 7O₂                          →                4CO₂ + 6H₂O

C = 4                                                            C= 4

H = 12                                                         H= 12

O = 14                                                         O=14

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The equation for the reaction shown represents the combustion of ethane.

C₂H₆ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

  • To balance the equation we put the coefficients, 2, 7, 4, and 6 on the reactants and products.

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

  • Balancing chemical equations makes the number of atoms of each element equal on both side of the equation.
  • It ensures that chemical equations obey the law of conservation of mass in chemical reactions.

Individual particles move with the wave.
MArishka [77]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No, individual particles do not move with the wave, it only oscillates back and forth its mean position. The particles in the medium transfer its energy to their neighboring particles and in that way the energy moves in the form of wave. The particles only vibrates on its means position instead of moving from one place to another. So we can conclude that Individual particles do not move with the wave.

Explain why the C―Ha bond is much more acidic than the C―Hb bond in pentan-2-one. Select the single best answer. 253 Ha is less
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Ha is more acidic than Hb because loss of Ha forms a resonance-stabilized conjugate base.

Explanation:

The carbon atom that is next to the carbonyl group in pentan-2-one is known as the alpha carbon atom, this carbon atom bears the Ha, the alpha hydrogen atoms.

Ha is more acidic than Hb because, loss of Ha leads to the formation of a resonance stabilized enolate ion. This resonance stabilization of the ion formed makes loss of Ha an easier process than loss of Hb, hence the answer above.
