For answering for the question, there exists four choices:
1) Na+  +  e- -------------- Na
2) Na --------Na+   +  e-
3) Cl2 +   2e-  ------------ Cl-
4) 2Cl-  ---------Cl2 +  2e-

reduction half-reaction general formula is 
oxidant + e - or +  -------- Product

so in our case the answer is 
1) Na+  +  e- -------------- Na (exactly balanced)

A student balanced the chemical equation Mg + O2 →MgO by writing Mg + O2 → MgO2. Was the equation balanced correctly? Explain yo
Amanda [17]

Explanation:

Charges on both magnesium and oxygen is 2. Though opposite in sign, they have equal charges so, both of them will be cancelled by each other.

As a result, formula of magnesium oxide is MgO and not MgO_{2}.

The student write the equation as Mg + O_2 \rightarrow MgO_2, it is not correct.

Therefore, given equation will be balanced as follows.

          2Mg + O_{2} \rightarrow 2MgO

Since, number of atoms on both reactant and product side are equal. Hence, this equation is completely balanced.

What else is produced during the combustion of butane, C4H10?<br><br> 2C4H10 + 13O2 → <br> + 10H2O
Neko [114]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

8CO₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Butane, C₄H₁₀
  • Butane is a hydrocarbon in the homologous series known as alkane.

We are required to determine the other product produced in the combustion of butane apart from water.

  • We know that the complete combustion of alkane yields carbon dioxide and water.
  • Therefore, combustion of butane will yield carbon dioxide and water.
  • The balanced equation for the complete combustion of butane will be;

       2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ →  8CO₂ + 10H₂O
