Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:
- 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.
- 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product
- 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1
For gas combustion reaction which is a reaction of hydrocarbons with oxygen produces CO₂ and H₂O (water vapor). can use steps:
Balancing C atoms, H and the last O atoms
Reaction
Zn + HNO₃⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂ + NO + H₂O
aZn + bHNO₃⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂ + cNO + dH₂O
Zn : left = a, right =1 ⇒a=1
H : left = b, right = 2d⇒ b=2d (eq 1)
N : left = b, right = 2+c⇒b=2+c (eq 2)
O : left = 3b, right = 6+c+d ⇒3b=6+c+d(eq 3)
3(2d)=6+c+d
6d=6+c+d
5d=6+c (eq 4)
3(2+c)=6+c+d
6+3c=6+c+d
2c=d (eq 5)
5(2c)=6+c
10c=6+c
9c=6
c = 2/3
d = 2 x 2/3
d = 4/3
b = 2 x 4/3
b = 8/3
The equation
aZn + bHNO₃⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂ + cNO + dH₂O to
Zn + 8/3HNO₃⇒ Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2/3NO + 4/3H₂O x 3
3Zn + 8HNO₃⇒ 3Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2NO + 4H₂O

Answer:
A. Na₂SO₄ and HCl
C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents
Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.
Like dissolves like simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other
Explanation:
A. Ionic substances like Na₂SO₄ are composed of charged particles called ions. These ions are either positively charged or negatively charged, therefore, they are attracted to substances of opposite charges. Also, polar molecules like HCl contains two oppositely charged ends. A polar solvent consists of molecules with two oppositely charged ends, therefore, ionic substances as well polar substances dissolve in them according to the concept of like dissolves like.
Gasoline being non-polar will only dissolve in like substances, polar solvents.
C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents
Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.
The statement "Like dissolves like" simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other. For example gasoline, a non-polar substance will dissolve only in a non-polar solvent like kerosene. Also, HCl, a polar molecule will dissolve in a polar solvent like water.
Answer:
When plastics decomposed, they produce methane gas, which contributes to global warming (not questioning beliefs on the matter). Plastic debris also is an issue affecting the ecology of an environment and can cause issues for the affected organisms. But the greenhouse gases released from biodegradable plastics is likely a greater concern.
