Helga [31]3 years ago
5 0
In chemistry and physics, a valence electron is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed; in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

ENTER THE COEFFICIENTS DIRECTLY FROM THE BALANCED CHEMICAL EQUATION. do not reduce to lowest terms. for example: if 3 moles H2 r
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The coefficients are 2 for H₂O and 1 for Ca(OH)₂.

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

Ca(OH)₂(aq) + 2 HCl(aq) → CaCl₂(aq) + 2 H₂O(l)

According to the balanced equation, the molar ratio of H₂O to Ca(OH)₂ is 2:1. Using this conversion factor, we have the following proportion:

moles Ca(OH)₂. (2 mol H₂O ÷ 1 mol Ca(OH)₂) = moles H₂O
