Answer is: seventy eight (78) atoms in this reaction.
In this balanced chemical reaction there are twelve carbon atoms (from two molecules of C₆H₁₄), twenty eight atoms of hydrogen (from two molecules of C₆H₁₄) and thirty eight atoms of oxygen (from nineteen molecules of oxygen):
12C + 28H + 38O = 78 atoms total.

Answer : The total number of atoms reacting in this equation are 78

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_6H_{14}+19O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+14H_2O

Balanced chemical reaction is the reaction in which the number of atoms of an individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

The species present on the left side of the right arrow is the reactant and the species present on the right side of the right arrow is the product.

In the given balanced reaction,

C_6H_{14} and O_2 are reactants.

CO_2 and H_2O are products.

In 2C_6H_{14}+19O_2, there are 12 atoms of carbon, 28 atoms of hydrogen and 38 atoms of oxygen.

The total number of atoms = 12 + 28 + 38 = 78

Hence, the total number of atoms reacting in this equation are 78

Rasek [7]
Let us calculate the structure of the electric shells of the Al atom. It has an atomic number of 13, so it has 13 electrons. The first 2 go to the first hell. The next 8 need to go to the second shell and the last 3 ones would go to the outermost shell. The outer shell, that is the most important one for chemical reactions, has thus 3 electrons. An atom always tries to have a completed outer shell (with either 2 or 8 atoms). It is easier for a cell to have a charge of +3 than a charge of -5 (smaller absolute value) and thus the Aluminum atom will try to get rid of the 3 electrons. In this process, it loses negative charge thus it will become positively charged. Hence, the correct answer is that it will prefer to lose 3 electrons and become positively charged.

belka [17]
<span>In the field of science, usually, the product of an experiment is computed ahead to understand if it reached a specific objective. It would reach greater than 100% of percent yield if the factors include faster reaction rates; proper handling of the reactants, no outside contaminants, and the procedure of the experiment is followed smoothly. It would reach lesser than 100% percent yield if the experiment is not followed, external factors such as contamination from the environment (wind, moisture, etc). </span>

The Valence Electrons of an Atom of Which Element would feel a Greater Effective Nuclear Charge than the Valence?
kumpel [21]
The effective nuclear charge is an innate property of a specific element. It is the pull of force that an electron feels from the nucleus. It is related to the valence electron by the equation: Z* = Z-S, where Z* is the effective nuclear charge, Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding constant.

For the following elements in the choices, these are their values of Z*:

Aluminum - +12.591
Beryllium - +1.912
Hydrogen - +1
Carbon - +4

The effective nuclear charge of Boron is +3. Thus, the answers are  Aluminum and Carbon.

How many moles of h2o are produced when using 7 moles of h2
Olenka [21]
1) Write the balaced chemical equation:

H2 + 2O2 → 2H2O

2) Infere the molar ratios:

1 mol H2 : 2 mol of water

3) Make the calculus as the direct proportion relation:

[2 mol H2O] / [1 mol H2] * 7 mol H2 = 14 mol H2

As you see you produce the double number of moles of H2O than number of moles of H2 used.

Answer: 14 moles

Which correctly lists the types of matter, in terms of their atoms, in order from least tightly packed to most tightly packed?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

gas are well separated with no regular arrangement and spreaded all over. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement and slightly spreaded. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern and not spreaded at all.
