Answer:

The four coefficients in order, separated by commas are 1, 8, 5, 6

Explanation:

We count the atoms in order to balance this combustion reaction. In combustion reactions, the products are always water and carbon dioxide.

C₅H₁₂  +  ?O₂→  ?CO₂ + ?H₂O

We have 12 hydrogen in right side and we can balance with 6 in the left side. But the number of oxygen is odd. We add 2 in the  right side, so we have 24 H, and in the product side we add a 12.

As we add 2 in the C₅H₁₂, we have 10 C, so we must add 10 to the CO₂ in the product side.

Let's count the oxygens: 20 from the CO₂ + 12 from the water = 32.

We add 16 in the reactant side. Balanced equation is:

2C₅H₁₂  + 16O₂→  10CO₂ + 12H₂O

We also can divide by /2 in order to have the lowest stoichiometry

C₅H₁₂  + 8O₂→  5CO₂ + 6H₂O

A large sample of solid calcium is crushed into smaller pieces for testing. Which two physical properties are the same for both
jarptica [38.1K]
Lets go over what our properties are

-Mass is a measure of the amount of matter available. 
<span>
-Density is the ratio of mass to volume. Density is determined to be a physical object</span>

<span>-Volume is the amount of space occupied by the object. </span>

<span>-Solubility is the amount of a substance required to form a saturated solution with a specific amount of solvent at a specified temperature. 
</span>
-Mass is the same size and weight of an object for the most part which cannot be the same for a bigger or smaller object. Which means density cannot either since density has a direct correlation with mass. Volume is usually the size occupied at the current time. This means it cannot be the same for a large and small object. Note that! Then we have solubility which is the amount required or needed but since you are just crushing the solid it would wind up still being the same amount.

-With this all put together we can say your answer is probably Solubility and Desnity.
