<u>Explanation</u>:
A chemical equation is said to be balanced when the total number of atoms present on the reactants side is equal to the total number of atoms present on the product side.
The unbalanced chemical equation is as follows,
Ca
(
s
)
+
N
2
(

To balance this equation, you need to look at how many atoms of each element are present on each side of the chemical equation.
Calcium has 1 atom on the reactant and 3 on the products side. To balance the reaction we need to multiply the calcium atom by 3 on the reactants side.

Now Nitrogen has a coefficient of 2 on both sides of the reaction. Hence the balanced chemical equation will thus be

Answer:
By the result of the formation of positive and negative ions, Ionic compounds are formed.
Explanation:
Electrons are actually transferred from one atom to another to form rare gas electron structures for each ion. The atom which forms a positive ion loses electrons to the atom which gains electrons to form a negative ion. A compound is not stable unless the number of electrons which are lost and gained are equal
2 H₂O₂ --> 2 H₂ + 2 O₂
2 moles H₂O₂ ------> 2 moles O₂
8 moles H₂O₂ ------> ?
moles O₂ = 8 x 2 / 2
moles O₂ = 16 / 2
= 8 moles
Answer C
hope this helps!
The balanced equation given is:
4NH3 + 3O2 .....> 2N2 + 6H2O
From this equation, we can note that 4 moles of NH3 are required to produce 2 moles of N2.
Therefore, the mole ratio of NH3 to N2 is 4:2 which can be simplified into 2:1
