<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.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Carboxylic acids is a homologous series in which the compounds contain a functional group called the carboxyl group (-COOH). The general molecular formula for carboxylic acids is CnH2n+1COOH. Carboxylic acids contain at least one carboxyl group.

Or in Polish…

Kwasy karboksylowe to homologiczna seria, w której związki zawierają grupę funkcyjną zwaną grupą karboksylową (-COOH). Ogólny wzór cząsteczkowy dla kwasów karboksylowych to CnH2n + 1COOH. Kwasy karboksylowe zawierają co najmniej jedną grupę karboksylową.

The reaction of a metal with oxygen to form rust is called
azamat

The reaction of a metal with oxygen to form rust is called as redox reaction.

Explanation:

The process during which the surface of metal reacts with the oxygen ions present in air, it has tendency to get oxidized that is formation of an oxide layer on the surface of the metal. Generally, it occurs when metals like iron comes in contact with moisture or water. So the oxygen in moisture reacts with iron giving its electron and getting oxidized and reducing the surface of metal by forming metal oxide. So the complete process of formation of rust is termed as redox reaction. As here both oxidation and reduction is taking place.

Point E is located at (-2, 2) and point F is located at (4-6). What is the distance between
Flauer [41]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

Given endpoints:

            E (-2,2) and F(4, -6)

To find the distance between two points;

   Use the expression below;

 D = \sqrt{(y_{2} - y_{1}  )^{2} + (x_{2} -  x_{1})^{2}  }

x₁  = -2,

x₂ = 4

y₁ = 2

y₂ = -6

  Insert the parameters and solve;

       D = \sqrt{(-6 - 2  )^{2} + (4 -+ 2)^{2}  }

      D = \sqrt{64+ 36 }   = 10
