Answer:
2K + 2H2O → H2 + 2KOH
Explanation:
Find how many atoms you have on both sides then add 2 to both sides.
Reactant: Products:
K: 1+1=2 K: 1+1=2
H: 2+2=4 H: 3+1=4
O: 1+1=2 O: 1+1=2
Therefore it is balanced. Hope this helps
Explanation:
the lone pairs will be negatively charged. these have a repulsion effect on other negatively charged electrons in the shells of atoms. picture a water molecule: the lone electron pair on the top of the oxygen will have a repulsion force on the 2 hydrogen atom's orbiting electrons to cause a bent molecular geometry.
