Explanation:

In a balanced equation, number of atoms on both reactant and product side are equal.

For example, C_{2}H_{6} + O_{2} \rightarrow CO_{2} + H_{2}O

Number of atoms present on reactant side are as follows.

C = 2

H = 6

O = 2

Number of atoms present on product side are as follows.

C = 1

H = 2

O = 3

Therefore, to balance this equation multiply C_{2}H_{6} by 2 and multiply O_{2} by 7 on reactant side. Whereas multiply CO_{2} by 4 and multiply H_{2}O by 6 on product side.

Therefore, the balanced chemical equation is as follows.

          2C_{2}H_{6} + 7O_{2} \rightarrow 4CO_{2} + 6H_{2}O

Step 1: Write the unbalanced equation,

                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →    CO₂  +  H₂<span>O

There are 2 C at left hand side and 1 carbon at right hand side. So, multiply CO</span>₂ by 2 to balance C atoms at both side. So,

                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  H₂O

Now, count number of H atoms at both sides. There are 6 H atoms at left hand side and 2 at right hand side. Multiply H₂O by 3 to balance H atoms.


                                 C₂H₆  +  O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

At last, balance O atoms. There are 2 O atoms at left hand side and 3 O atoms at right hand side. Multiply O₂ with 1.5 (i.e. 3/2) to balance O atoms. i.e.

                                 C₂H₆  +  3/2 O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

Hence, the equation is balanced. If you want to make equation fraction free then multiply all equation with 2. i.e.

                           ( C₂H₆  +  3/2 O₂    →   2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O ) × 2

                                2 C₂H₆  +  3 O₂    →   4 CO₂  +  6 H₂O

Which of the following samples will have the greatest volume at STP?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Option b. 22 g of He will have the greatest volume at STP

Explanation:

In order to determine the volume, we apply the Ideal Gases Law equation:

P . V = n . R . T

V = n . R . T / P

R, T and P are the same in all the situation we must define n (number of moles).

The one that has the greatest number of moles will have the greatest volume at STP

22 g of Ne . 1mol / 20.1 g = 1.09 moles of Ne

22g of He . 1mol / 4 g = 5.5 moles of He

22 g of O₂ . 1mol / 32g = 0.68 moles of O₂

22 g of Cl₂ . 1mol / 70.9 g = 0.31 moles of Cl₂

when a chemical change occurs, what do you know about the amount of matter in the new substances? what is this known as?( is it
Pavel [41]

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that the total mass of the products is equal to the total of the reactants.

A chemical change occurs because of a chemical reaction.

In a chemical reaction, the reactants are the starting substances and the products is the finishing substances. The amount of each type of atoms to start with and end with are also equal.

No matter disappears after a chemical reaction.

Answer:

The amount of matter in the new substances is the same as the original.

This is known as the law of conservation of mass.
