Answer:

C2H3Br + O2 → CO2 + H2O + HBr

Explanation:

The term balancing of chemical reaction equation has a unique meaning in chemistry. What it actually means is to ensure that the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side of reaction equation becomes equal to the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side of the reaction equation.

When we look at the equation; C2H3Br + O2 → CO2 + H2O + HBr, the number of atoms of each element on the left and right hand sides of the given equation are not the same hence the equation is unbalanced.

If we look at the equation; 2C2H3Br + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O + 2HBr, the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction equation are now equal, thus the later equation is the balanced version of the former.

Find the density of the plastic. if the density is less than that of water, it's going to float. If it's more than the density of water, then it's going to sink.

How many hydrogen atoms are attached to each carbon adjacent to a double bond? nurition?
larisa [96]
That depends. there are 2 possible answers.
      H
C - C = C - H gives a different answer on the right than on the left.

One the left side, the second Carbon is attached to a double bond and has but one hydrogen attached to it.

The Carbon on the right of the double bond has 2
     H
C- C = C - H
            H

I'm not sure what you should put. It's one of those things that I would repeat my argument and submit it.

How do protons electrons and neutrons differ in charge and location in the atom?
dlinn [17]
Electrons are electrochemically negatively charged particles that move random around the nucleus. They have a relatively small mass compared to Protons and Neutrons. They are found in electron clouds that surround the nucleus and their movement and properties provide for the bonding characteristics of each atom.
