Answer:

Pb(NO₃)₂ + K₂CrO₄ ⟶ PbCrO₄ + 2KNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

The unbalanced equation is

Pb(NO₃)₂ + K₂CrO₄ ⟶ PbCrO₄ + KNO₃

Notice that the complex groups like NO₃ and CrO₄ stay the same on each side of the equation.

One way to simplify the balancing is to replace them with a single letter.

(a) For example, let <em>X = NO₃</em> and <em>Y =CrO₄</em>. Then, the equation becomes

PbX₂ + K₂Y ⟶ PbY + KX

(b) You need 2X on the right, so put a 2 in front of KX.

PbX₂ + K₂Y ⟶ PbY + 2KX

Pb(NO₃)₂ + K₂CrO₄ ⟶ PbCrO₄ + 2KNO₃

saveliy_v [14]

Explanation:

Combustion of a compound is the reaction with oxygen , hence , the process of combustion is an oxidation reaction.

The carbohydrates contain more amount of oxygen as compared to the fats ,

Hence ,

carbohydrates , have a lot of oxygen contents , are are already partially oxidized , but fats have lower oxygen content .

Therefore ,

The partially oxidized carbohydrates are very difficult to oxidized in comparison to fats .
