Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.

878 kilograms to milligrams ( 8.78 E 8)
sammy [17]
K stands for thousands
1 k = 1000
1 milli = 0.001
covert 878kg to g
878 x 1000=878000 g or (8.78^5)
convert g to mg
878000 / 0.001 =878,000,000
=8.78^8

This reaction shows the complete combustion of octane, C8H18, a component of gasoline. How many moles of O2 are needed to burn 2
ANTONII [103]
How you're going to answer this question is by doing a mole t - chart first you're going to put 2.40 mol of C8H18 opposite of the mol then you're going to find o2 which 256 on the bottom then multiply across to get the answer.

What is the number of electrons shared between the atoms in I2 molecule (That is an i not a 1)
labwork [276]
Iodine is one of seven elements that usually form as diatomic molecules. These other "diatomics" are O_2, H_2, F_2, Br_2, N_2, and Cl_2. They typically bond to themselves.

Iodine has seven valence electrons. Using valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory, we can predict the Lewis dot structure for I_2. We see there are fourteen electrons, and we can make a covalent bond, leaving three lone pairs on each atom. The bond replaces two electrons, so the number of electrons shared is two.
