I'm guessing it's C-Oxygen because in order to burn something, or create fire, oxygen HAS to be present.
Na is cation so it loses electron to be positive and become stable losing one valence shells one electron so it's oxidation number is +1 ie A is correct
Answer:
5SiO2 + 2CaC2 = 5Si + 2CaO + 4CO2
Explanation:
balancing equations is a lot of trial and error. My strategy to approaching this equation was to get the O's balanced. After trying several combonations I found that I needed 10 O's on each side of the equation for the other elements to match up. After I balanced the O's, I balanced my C's to 4 on each side. Then I balanced my Ca's to have 2 on each side. And last but not least I balanced my Si to have 5 on each side.
NaOH+HCl-> NaCl+H2O
1 mole of NaOH
1 mole of HCl.
To calculate volume of NaOH
CaVa/CbVb= Na/Nb
Where Ca=2M
Cb=1M
Va=200cm³
Vb=xcm³
Substitute into the equation.
2×200/1×Vb=1/1
400/Vb=1/1
Cross multiply
Vb×1=400×1
Vb=400cm³
To calculate the mass of sodium chloride, NaCl from the neutralization rxn.
Mole of NaCl=1
Molar mass of NaCl= 23+35.5=58.5
Mass=xgrammes.
Mass of NaCl=Number of moles × Molar mass.
Substitute
Mass of NaCl= 1×58.5
=58.5g
This is what I could come up with.
