There is a missing portion of this question which shows the reaction that needs balancing:
"In a balanced equation, the same number of each kind of atom is shown on each side of the equation. Calculate the number of iron (Fe), oxygen (O), and carbon atoms (C).
Fe2O3+ 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO<span>2
</span><span>Based on these values, is the equation balanced?</span><span>"
</span>
To check if this equation is balanced we simply compare the number of each element on each side of the equation.
On the reactant side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
On the product side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
Therefore, both side of the reaction have the correct and equal number of each atom, so the equation is balanced.
Answer:
Only changes in temperature will influence the equilibrium constant 
. The system will shift in response to certain external shocks. At the new equilibrium 
will still be equal to , but the final concentrations will be different.
The question is asking for sources of the shocks that will influence the value of . For most reversible reactions:
- External changes in the relative concentration of the products and reactants.
For some reversible reactions that involve gases:
- Changes in pressure due to volume changes.
Catalysts do not influence the value of . See explanation.
Explanation:
.
Similar to the rate constant, the equilibrium constant depends only on:
the standard Gibbs energy change of the reaction, and
the absolute temperature (in degrees Kelvins.)
The reversible reaction is in a dynamic equilibrium when the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the backward reaction. Reactants are constantly converted to products; products are constantly converted back to reactants. However, at equilibrium 
the two processes balance each other. The concentration of each species will stay the same.
Factors that alter the rate of one reaction more than the other will disrupt the equilibrium. These factors shall change the rate of successful collisions and hence the reaction rate.
- Changes in concentration influence the number of particles per unit space.
- Changes in temperature influence both the rate of collision and the percentage of particles with sufficient energy of reaction.
For reactions that involve gases,
- Changing the volume of the container will change the concentration of gases and change the reaction rate.
However, there are cases where the number of gases particles on the reactant side and the product side are equal. Rates of the forward and backward reaction will change by the same extent. In such cases, there will not be a change in the final concentrations. Similarly, catalysts change the two rates by the same extent and will not change the final concentrations. Adding noble gases will also change the pressure. However, concentrations stay the same and the equilibrium position will not change.

Answer: Substance is Mercury (Hg)
number of protons = 80
number of electrons = 80
Explanation:
Atomic number which is symbolized by "Z" is the number of protons in nucleus of an atom.
Hence,
number of protons = atomic number = 80
- By knowing atomic number, we can find the element by using periodic table. Since the atomic number 80, the element is Mercury (Hg).
If the substance is in its neutral state, which means there is no charge on it, then the number of protons equals to the number of electrons of that element.
Hence,
number of electrons = number of protons = 80
