De acuerdo con la Ley de la Conservación de la Materia postulada por Lavoisier, ¿cuál ecuación química está balanceada? A C2H5OH
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

C C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2 + 3H2O

Explanation:

La ley de conservación de la materia implica que en una reacción química los átomos en los reactivos son iguales a la cantidad de átomos en los productos:

A C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → CO2 + H2O

En los reactivos hay dos átomos de carbono pero en los productos solo 1. De esta manera, no cumple la ley de conservación.

B C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → 2CO2 + H2O

En los reactivos hay 6 átomos de hidrógeno pero en los productos solo 2. No cumple la ley de conservación.

C C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2 + 3H2O

En los reactivos y productos hay: 2 átomos de carbono, 6 átomos de hidrógeno y 7 átomos de oxígeno. Cumple la ley de conservación.

D C2H5OH(l) + O2(g) → 2CO2 + 3H2O

En los reactivos hay 3 átomos de oxígeno y en los productos 7. No cumple la ley de conservación.

E 2C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) → 2CO2 + 3H2O

En los reactivos hay 4 átomos de carbono y en los productos solo dos. No cumple la ley de conservación.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Cr(s) ⟶ Cr⁴⁺(aq) + 4e⁻  

Explanation:

1. Write the skeleton half-reaction

Cr(s) ⟶ Cr⁴⁺(aq)

2. Balance charge

Add electrons to the side that needs them.

You have 4+ on the right and 0 on the left. You must add 4e⁻ to the right to balance the charge.

Cr(s) ⟶ Cr⁴⁺(aq) + 4e⁻

galben [10]

Answer:

The answer is "7.90 \ g".

Explanation:

Please finds the complete question in the attached file.

Volume = 10.0 \ mL \\\\Density =0.79 g\  cm^3

\text{Density}=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass = Density \times Volume

         =(0.790 g\ cm^3) \times 10.0 \ mL\\\\=7.90 \ g

The mass of acetone to be weighed is 7.90 \ g

A 5.2 molal aqueous solution of methyl alcohol, CH3OH, is supplied. What is the mole fraction of methyl alcohol in the solution?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

0.086

Explanation:

A 5.2 molal aqueous solution of methyl alcohol indicates that 5.2 moles of methyl alcohol are present in 1 kilogram (or 1000 g) of water. Water has a molecular weight of 18 g/mol.

(100g)/18g/mol=55.56 mol

5.2 mol/(5.2mol+55.56 mol)=0.086
