Answer:

H2SO4

Explanation:

In 100 g of the compound we hgave

2.00 g H, 32.7 g S and 65.3 g O.

2g* 1 mol/g = 2.0 mol H

32.7 g S * 1 mol/32.1 g = 1.02 mol S

65.3 g 0 * 1 mol/16 g = 4.08 mol O

2.0 mol H : 1.02 mol S : 4.08 mol O = 2 mol H : 1 mol S : 4 mol O

H2SO4

Balance this equation: Al+ HNO3 ---- H2 + Al(NO3)3

romanna [79]

Answer:

2Al+ 6HNO3 ---- 3H2 + 2Al(NO3)3

Explanation:

Put coefficient a,b,c, and d for calculation:

a Al + b HNO3 = c H2 + d Al(NO3)3

for Al: a = d

for H: b = 2c

for N: b = 3d

for O: 3b = 9d

Suppose a=1, then d=1, b=3, c=3/2

multiply 2 to make all natural number, a=2, then b=6, c=3, d=2
