The chemical equation is said to be balanced if the number of atoms in the reactants and products is the same
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Equation balanced ⇒ total number of atoms in reactants(on the left)= total number of atoms in products(on the right)
H₂+O₂---> H₂O
Reactants : H₂, O₂
Products : H₂O
not balanced
H₂O₂ ---> H₂O+O₂
Reactants : H₂O₂
Products : H₂O, O₂
not balanced
Na+O₂ ---> Na₂O
Reactants : Na, O₂
Products : Na₂O
not balanced
N₂+H₂ ---> NH₃
Reactants : N₂, H₂
Products : NH₃
not balanced
P₄+O₂---> P₄O₁₀
Reactants : P₄, O₂
Products : P₄O₁₀
not balanced
Fe+H₂O ----> Fe₃O₄ + H₂
Reactants : Fe, H₂O
Products : Fe₃O₄
not balanced
The principle that in any closed system
Hydrocarbons are molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen. Due to carbon's unique bonding patterns, hydrocarbons can have single, double, or triple bonds between the carbon atoms. The names of hydrocarbons with single bonds end in "-ane," those with double bonds end in "-ene," and those with triple bonds end in "-yne". The bonding of hydrocarbons allows them to form rings or chains.
