10H₂ + 5O₂ → 10H₂O
Explanation:
This problem deals with balancing of chemical equations. In balancing chemical equations, the law of conservation of mass must be followed. This states that:
"In a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another".
This meaning of this is that; the number of atoms on each side of the expression must be the same.
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
let us check is the equation above is balanced;
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Elements reactant product
H 4 4
O 2 2
We can see vividly that the equation is balanced;
Now; if we have 5 oxygen gas, we multiply the equation through by 5:
5 x ( 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O )
⇒ 10H₂ + 5O₂ → 10H₂O
Elements reactant product
H 20 20
O 10 10

Explanation:
1. Electrons surround the nucleus in defined regions called orbits.
2. The shells further away from the nucleus are larger and can hold more electrons.
3. The shells closer to the nucleus are smaller and can hold less electrons.
4. The closest shell (closest to the nucleus) can hold a maximum of two electrons.
5. Once the first shell is full, the second shell begins to fill. It can hold a maximum of eight electrons.
6. Once the second shell is full, the third shell begins to fill.
7. Once the third shell contains Eighteen electrons, the fourth shell begins to fill.
8. The arrangement of electrons in shells around the nucleus is referred to as an atom's electronic configuration.
