H2co3 ___> CO2 + H2o
quester [9]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

H2CO3(aq) ⇆ H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Aqueous carbonic acid = H2CO3

H2CO3 decomposes into CO2 and H2O

Step 2: Balancing the equation

H2CO3(aq) ⇆ H2O(l) + CO2(g)

We do not have to change anything in this reaction since it's already balanced.

We have 2x H on both sides ( 2x in H2CO3 and 2x in H2O)

We have 1x C on both sides (1x in H2CO3 and 1x in CO2)

We have 3x O on both sides (3x in H2CO3 and 1x in H2O, 2x in CO2)

Which overall chemical equation is obtained by combining these intermediate equations?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The common substance among the product(s) of the first equation and among the reactant(s) in the second equation is H2O(g). We can eliminate that as an intermediate. The overall chemical equation will thus be:

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l),

which is the first answer choice.

In essence, all you’re doing here is swapping water vapor for liquid water.

Ethane, C2H6, can be formed by reacting acetylene, C2H2, with hydrogen gas as follows: C2H2(g) H2(g) ⇌ C2H6(g) Exothermic What c
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Equilibrium shifts to the right

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one in which temperature is released to the environment. Hence, if the reaction vessel housing an exothermic reaction is touched after reaction completion, we will notice that the reaction vessel e.g beaker is hot.

To consider the equilibrium response to temperature changes, we need to consider if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. In the case of this particular question, it has been established that the reaction is exothermic.

Heat is released to the surroundings as the reactants are at a higher energy level compared to the products. Hence, increasing the temperature will favor the formation of more reactants and as such, the equilibrium position will shift to the left to pave way for the formation of more reactants. Thus , more acetylene and hydrogen would be yielded

EXPLAIN how to identify the reducing agent in a reaction of magnesium with oxygen
Alina [70]

Explanation:

Mg+O>MgO

Here the mg loses it electron and is oxidised and oxygen gains and is reduced.

Mg(2+)and O(2-)

Mg is a reducing agent it makes oxygen to be reduced while itself being oxidised and vice versa.

What are the products of the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon in excess oxygen
dangina [55]
The products for the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon in excess air is carbon dioxide and water. Any hydrocarbon when reacted with oxygen will always yield the said products. Incomplete combustion, on the other hand, yields carbon monoxide and water.
