Chemical equations can be written down in 3 steps:

As example I’ll using the rusting of iron (as given)

1) Write down the products that react on the left side of the arrow.

2) Write the products after the reaction on the right side of the arrow. If there are one or more of a different atom that isn’t on the other side of the equation, the reaction is missing something on either sides.

Fe -> Fe2O3

But as you can see there are no O on the left side. The right formula is:

Fe + O2 -> Fe2O3

Review to make sure you wrote down everything.

3) Count all the atoms of each elements on each side. Balance out the amount of atoms on both sides by adding coefficients to your compounds

Take note that you need to multiply all the elements in the compound times the number

Fe + O2 -> Fe2O3

We need at least 2 iron atoms to balance out on the iron.

2Fe + O2 -> Fe2O3

Now we see that we have 2 O atoms on the left and 3 on the right. The smallest number that is divisable by both 2 and 3 is 6. Add coefficients in front of O2 and Fe2O3.

2Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3

Now we see that on the right there are 4 iron atoms. Balance out by multiplying iron on the left by 2.

4Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3

This is the final equation.

Pluto has been reassigned and is now a dwarf planet. Why did scientists think this reassignment was necessary? If you were a sci
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

we humans have our own ify classification for celestial objects, most people are saddened that pluto is not a planet anymore altho it hasn't changed at all.

scientist say that if an object is going to be considered a planet it must fill in these three checkboxes:

You must be spherical, you must orbit a star, and you must have already cleared your path or debris.

Pluto fills in the first two boxes but it does orbit in the keyperbelt and there are 5 other objects just like it. this is why pluto has been dubbed a dwarf planet.

How do you solve 0.004 dm + 0.12508 dm?
Effectus [21]
0.004 of something added to 0.12508 of the same thing
adds up to 0.12908 of it.  

The thing could be a glass of water, a sheet of paper,
a pound of ground beef, a gallon of gas, or a snowball.  
In this problem, it just happens to be a dm.
