Answer:
I got 3/8, hope this helps.
Explanation:
Hey there!
Na + H₂O → NaOH + H₂
First, balance O.
One on the left, one on the right. Already balanced.
Next, balance H.
Two on the left, three on the right. Let's add a coefficient of 2 in front of NaOH and a coefficient of 2 in front of H₂O, so we have 4 on each side.
Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂
Lastly, balance Na.
One on the left, two on the right. Add a coefficient of 2 in front of Na.
2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂
This is our final balanced equation.
Hope this helps!
I suppose you mean to ask why we can't go through obstacles.
Any atom is surrounded by an electronic cloud. When two atoms get close to each other, the electronic clouds repel each other, preventing them from interpenetrating each other. That same phenomenon, on a larger scale, prevents us from going through matter.
Explanation:
The experiment is performed at a constant atmospheric pressure. The experiment proceeds by placing an empty flask in a boiling water bath. As the temperature increases, the air inside the flask expands. Afterwards, the gas is cooled in a water bath by maintaining the amount of the air in the flask constant.
