Answer:

Coefficient

Explanation:

We can explain this discarting options too. Now, let's write again the chemical equation;

C3H8(g)+5O2(g)→3CO2(g)+4H2O(l)

In a chemical equation, we have two sides. The left side we have the reactants of the reaction, these can be elements or compounds that reacts between each other, to produce another compound or substance. This compounds or elements are on the right side of the reaction. This side we have the products of the reaction of reactants.

Now, as in every situation of life, we need a balance of reactants and products, so, the only way to balance a chemical equation is by putting numbers behind every compound of the reactant and/or products to equal the number of atoms on each side. So if in the reactants we have 3 atoms of C, in the products we need to have the same 3 atoms.

Based on the above explanation, we can say that the number 4 is behind the H2O. This compound is on the side of products, but the number only, do not represent a product, so this option can be discarted.

A reactant cannot be either, cause it's not on the side of reactant.

Chemical formula, could be, if the number were as subscript, but it's not the case, and the chemical formula is composed of symbols.

Finally, as the number that we put behind the compounds work to balance the equation, the only function that these numbers have here, is to be coefficients of the reactions, and furthermore, it will work as mole.

So the correct option is the third one, Coefficient.

Determine the volume of fluid in the graduated cylinder shown.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

47.3 ml

Explanation:

The graduated cylinder is shown in the image attached.

Now we have to take a good look at the cylinder, the lines between 45 and 50 are 46, 47, 48 and 49. Even though the points in between two lines weren't graduated but we can intelligently guess the correct volume by observing the upper meniscus of the liquid. Hence the answer.

Complete combustion of 2.60 g of a hydrocarbon produced 8.46 g of co2 and 2.60 g of h2o. what is the empirical formula for the h
zubka84 [21]
1 mole of carbon dioxide contains a mass of 44 g, out of which 12 g are carbon. 
Hence, in this case the mass of carbon in 8.46 g of CO2:
 (12/44) × 8.46 = 2.3073 g
 1 mole of water contains 18 g, out of which 2 g is hydrogen;
Therefore, 2.6 g of water contains;
 (2/18) × 2.6 = 0.2889 g of hydrogen.
Therefore, with the amount of carbon and hydrogen from the hydrocarbon we can calculate the empirical formula.
We first calculate the number of moles of each,
Carbon = 2.3073/12  = 0.1923 moles
Hydrogen = 0.2889/1 = 0.2889 moles
Then, we calculate the ratio of Carbon to hydrogen by dividing with the smallest number value;
             Carbon : Hydrogen
  0.1923/0.1923 : 0.2889/0.1923
                       1 :  1.5
                      (1 : 1.5) 2
                     = 2 : 3
Hence, the empirical formula of the hydrocarbon is C2H3

Lead (ll) nitride+ammonium sulfate > lead(ll) sulfate + ammonium nitride
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Pb_3N_2 + 3 (NH_4)_2SO_4\rightarrow 3 PbSO_4 + 2 (NH_4)_3N

Explanation:

Let's rewrite the given word equation in its chemical balanced equation representation:

1. Lead(II) nitride is represented by lead, Pb, in an oxidation state of 2+, while nitride is a typical nitrogen anion with a state 3-. As a result, the lowest common multiple between 2 and 3 is 6, meaning 2 lead cations are needed to balance 3 nitrogen anions: Pb_3N_2.

2. Ammonium sulfate consists of an ammonium cation with a 1+ charge and sulfate anion with a 2- charge, two ammonium cations needed: (NH_4)_2SO_4.

3. Lead(II) sulfate would have one lead cation and one sulfate anion, as they have the same magnitude of charges with opposite signs: PbSO_4.

4. Ammonium nitride would require three amonium cations to balance the nitride anion: (NH_4)_3N.

Let's write the balanced equation:

Pb_3N_2 + 3 (NH_4)_2SO_4\rightarrow 3 PbSO_4 + 2 (NH_4)_3N
