What are the answers choices?
It depends. many of the websites i see answering the questions are all over the place, but good luck.
Answer:
88.46%
Explanation:
Percentage yield is actual/theoretical * 100
138/156 * 100 = 88.4615385
The answer is "opposite charges."
<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
2C</span>₈H₈ + 25O₂ → 8CO₂ + 18H₂<span>O
LHS: C - 16 RHS: C - 8
H - 16 H - 36
O - 50 O - 34
Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced. This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."
</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈ + 10O₂ → 8CO₂ + 4H₂O
