Answer:

C₄H₁₀(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) ⇒ 8 CO₂(g) + 10 H₂O(g)

Explanation:

Butane gas (C₄H₁₀) burns in oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. The unbalanced equation is:

C₄H₁₀(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

First, we will balance carbon and hydrogen which are in just one compound on each side.

C₄H₁₀(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 4 CO₂(g) + 5 H₂O(g)

Finally, we will balance the oxygen atoms.

C₄H₁₀(g) + 6.5 O₂(g) ⇒ 4 CO₂(g) + 5 H₂O(g)

In order to have integers, we will multiply everý compound by 2.

2 C₄H₁₀(g) + 13 O₂(g) ⇒ 8 CO₂(g) + 10 H₂O(g)

Why does a gold isotope, with an atomic number of 79, require more neutrons to be stable than a sodium isotope, with an atomic n
Leya [2.2K]

Here’s a simplified explanation.

The <em>protons</em> in the nucleus <em>repel each other</em>. The <em>neutrons provide the “glue”</em> that holds the nucleus together and prevents it from flying apart.

The “glue” is the strong nuclear force. It is strong but extremely short range. It falls off extremely rapidly as the p-n distance increases.

A <em>neon atom</em> has 10 protons. There are three stable isotopes, with 10, 11, and 12 neutrons.

With fewer than 10 protons, the glue is not strong enough to hold the nucleus together.

If there are more than 12 neutrons, the average p-n distance is great enough that the glue has again become too weak.

<em>Gold</em> has one stable isotope. It contains 79 protons and 118 neutrons.

If there are fewer than 118 neutrons, the proton repulsions will be too strong for the strong force. If there are more than 118 neutrons, the average p-n distance will be large enough that the glue will again be too weak to hold the nucleus toge ther.

A jogger runs at an average speed of 5.9 mi/h.
madreJ [45]

She will cover distance in  3 days and 16 hours .the time will be 3:15 am on the fourth day.

Convert 5.9 miles/hour to feet/hour there are 5,280 feet in a mile

total distance covered  = 47500

distance = rate x time

now,  time = 47500/5280

time =  88 hours

88 hours = 3 Days and 16 Hours.

now the time will be 3 :15 am on the fourth day.

The overall distance the object covers in a given amount of time is its average speed. A scalar value represents the average speed. It has no direction and is indicated by the magnitude.

The distance traveled divided by the time taken is the most popular formula for calculating average speed. The alternative formula is to add the initial and final speeds together, then divide by 2.

An experiment was performed to determine how the amount of coffee grounds could affect the taste of coffee.The same kind of coff
gavmur [86]
What we want to measure is the taste of coffee.

The following were kept constant during the experimental investigation:
The type of coffee,
The type of percolator,
The same amount and type of water,
The same perking time,
The same electrical sources.

Because these items were kept constant, they are not expected to influence the outcome of the experimental investigation.

Define:
y = the metric used to measure the taste of coffee
x = amount of coffee grounds used for the taste experiment.

Therefore the relationship that arises from the experiment is
y = y(x).

Because x is controllable and is varied during the experiment, it is the independent variable.
Because the measured value of y depends on x, therefore y is the dependent variable.

Answer:
The taste of coffee is the dependent variable.
The amount of coffee grounds used is the independent variable.
