<u>Answer:</u> The coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of tin (IV) oxide and carbon follows:

SnO_2+C\rightarrow Sn+CO_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of tin (IV) oxide reacts with carbon to produce 1 mole of elemental tin and carbon dioxide.

Hence, the coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

PLEASE HELP...with single replacement reaction w/ activity series
Blizzard [7]

Answer : The balanced chemical reaction will be:

AuI_4+2Br2\rightarrow AuBr_4+2I_2

Explanation :

Single replacement reaction : A chemical reaction in which the more reactive element replace the less reactive element.

It is represented as,

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

In this reaction, A is more reactive element and B is less reactive element.

As per question, when gold (IV) iodide react with bromine to give gold (IV) bromide and iodine.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

AuI_4+2Br2\rightarrow AuBr_4+2I_2
