Explanation:
oxygen and are negatively charged anions because the oxygen atoms attract electrons. Ammonium is one of the few positively charged polyatomic ions or cations and doesn't contain oxygen.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
C. Balance these fossil-fuel combustion reactions. (1 point)
C8H18(g) + 12.5O2(g) → ____CO2(g) + 9H2O(g) + heat
CH4(g) + ____O2(g) → ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat
C3H8(g) + ____O2(g) → ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat
C6H6(g) + ____O2(g) → ____CO2(g) + ____H2O(g) + heat
Solution :
C8H18(g) + 12.5O2(g) → __8__CO2(g) + 9H2O(g) + heat
When 1 part of octane reacts with 12.5 parts of oxygen, it gives 8 parts of carbon dioxide and 9 parts of water along with liberation of energy.
CH4(g) + __2__O2(g) → __1__CO2(g) + __2__H2O(g) + heat
When 1 part of methane reacts with 2 parts of oxygen, it gives 1 part of carbon dioxide and 2 parts of water along with liberation of energy.
C3H8(g) + __5__O2(g) → __3__CO2(g) + __4__H2O(g) + heat
When 1 part of propane reacts with 5 parts of oxygen, it gives 3 part of carbon dioxide and 4 parts of water along with liberation of energy.
C6H6(g) + __1/2__O2(g) → __6__CO2(g) + __3__H2O(g) + heat
When 1 part of propane reacts with 1/2 parts of oxygen, it gives 6 part of carbon dioxide and 3 parts of water along with liberation of energy.
Without units, the results of your measurement would be unclear and it would be hard to know what each seperate measurement is telling you.
Physical properties are the characteristics of matter that can be seen or measured through direct observation.
It is true
