Please help balance <br> _Ch7H16+_O2=_CO2+_H2O
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

C7H16 + 11 O2 → 7 CO2 + 8 H2O

This is an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction:

7 C-16/7 - 44 e- → 7 CIV (oxidation)

22 O0 + 44 e- → 22 O-II (reduction)

C7H16 is a reducing agent, O2 is an oxidizing agent.

Reactants:

C7H16

Describe a solution and tell if the parts are mixed chemically or physically.
ANTONII [103]
Hey there! Let's get that problem solved! 

First: Let's define, "solution." 

Solution: <span>a liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

Next: Ask yourself, "can a solution be taken apart?" 

In some cases, yes. It can. 

The solution of salt water for example, can be physically separated by evaporation. (place salt-water in a pot on a heated stove, place the cover to the pot on the opening, wait a few minutes, remove the top, and you can (and taste) the water without the salt!)  </span><span />
