Answer:

The answer is D. The O and H atoms are balanced differently.

Explanation:

So the only difference between reactions in basic and acidic conditions is that balancing reactions in a base, you would first balance it like how you would in an acid, but since you're in a basic solution now, you would add enough OH- to both sides of the equation to neutralize the H+.

I hope this helps!

Answer: The ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 :31

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons are burnt in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced combustion reaction is,:

$2C_{10}H_{22}(l)+31O_2(g)\rightarrow 20CO_2(g)+22H_2O(g)$

Thus the ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 : 31

Use the image above and describe the

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

If you see in the image above, there is an unbalance force applied while playing tug of war. Since it is 1 vs 2, there is a greater net force in the right side then the left side. If it was 2 vs 2 or 1 vs 1, then they are appling balance force. You can also see in the picture that the arrows are pointing outwards (--->) rather then inwards (<---) because you are pulling the rope not pushing the rope. If you add one person on the left side, then the newtons which is 20N will become to 35N and will be balanced, but since there in only 1 person, there is less force on the left side, the newtons gets subtracted having only 20N. Since you are pulling the rope, the friction is opposite (<---). Since you are pulling the rope, you are using Kinetic force and the rope stays in potential force since it stays constant.

Hope this helps, thank you :) and I am not sure about magnitude I think you can that since there is greater force on the right side, there is more magnitude there.

Find the percentage composition of a compound that contains 1.94 g of carbon, 0.48 g of hydrogen, and 2.58 g of sulfur.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer : The percentage composition of carbon, hydrogen and sulfur in a compound is, 38.8 %, 9.6 % and 51.6 % respectively.

Explanation :

To calculate the percentage composition of element in sample, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of sample}}\times 100$
