<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:
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.
2C4H10 + 13O2 = 8CO2 + 10H2O
1. (2.06g C4H10)/(58.12 g/mol C4H10) = 0.035mol C4H10
2. (0.035molC4H10)(10 mol H2O/2mol C4H10) = 0.177mol H2O
3. (0.177mol H2O)(18.01g/mol H2O) = 3.19g H2O
The reaction is not balanced
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
2Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)
Required
The number of atoms
Solution
In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms in the compound that reacts (the reactants and products) will have the same number
Reactants : Fe(s)+O₂(g)
Fe = 2 atoms
O = 3 x 2 = 6 atoms
Products : Fe₂O₃(s)
Fe = 2 x 2 = 4 atoms
O = 2 x 3 = 6 atoms
The reaction is not balanced because the number of Fe atoms is not the same
The balanced reaction should be:
4Fe(s)+3O₂(g)⇒2Fe₂O₃(s)
Activation energy is defined as the least amount of energy that is needed to be available in a chemical system with potential reactants in order to result a chemical reaction. Therefore, the correct answer would be the first option: the heat released in a reaction.
Answer:
The equation is: CuCO3(s) → CuO(s) + CO2(g)
Explanation:
Copper carbonate decomposes at high temperatures, generating the products carbon dioxide (CO2) and copper oxide (II) CuO. In this type of decomposition reaction, a substance is broken generating two different compounds.
