Balance the follwing equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

- in order to balance the chemical equation, you need to make sure the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of each element on the product side.

equation: (given)

__ C + __ H2 --> __ CH4

C = 1                |    C = 1

H = 2               |    H = 4

so, here we can see that the number of hydrogen (H) atoms are NOT equal, which means we have to put a number infront of the compounds inorder to balance it. this means putting a coefficient.

equation: (balanced)

C + 2H2 + CH4

- the only thing added was the 2.

Kinetic Energy in Solids, Liquids, and Gases
ELEN [110]

Answer:

The amount of motion of these particles depends on the kinetic energy they possess. Particles with more kinetic energy move faster and farther apart. Particles with less energy move more slowly and stay closer together. The total kinetic energy of all the particles in a sample of matter is called thermal energy. Solids have the lowest kinetic energy as they are tightly packed and vibrate in place. Liquids have comparatively higher kinetic energy so the particles slide past each other. Gases have the most kinetic energy as a result they float around in the air.

Liquids have more kinetic energy than solids. When a substance increases in temperature, heat is being added, and its particles are gaining kinetic energy. Because of their close proximity to one another, liquid and solid particles experience inter-molecular forces.

3) Explain why the standard enthalpy of vaporization, (Delta)Hvap, values for each set of compounds below are not the same.
Amanda [17]

Answer:

a. CH4 is only held together by London dispersion forces since any dipoles cancel out due to symmetry. On the other hand H2O  has strong hydrogen bonds

b. PH3 has dipole-dipole forces while NH3 is held together by stronger hydrogen bonding

c. C2H6 and C3H8 . Both substances are held together by London dispersion forces since any dipoles cancel out due to symmetry. However C3H8 has the stronger London dispersion forces of the two because it is a larger molecule,

d. BH3 is held together by London dispersion forces since any dipoles cancel out due to symmetry while OF2​ is held together by stronger dipole-dipole forces

Potassium hydroxide reacts with phosphoric acid (H3PO4) to form potassium phosphate and water. In the balanced chemical equation
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation is given as:

3KOH(aq)+H_3PO_4(aq)\rightarrow K_3PO_4(aq)+3H_2O(l)

Explanation:

When potassium hydroxide reacts with phosphoric acid it gives potassium phosphate and water as a products.

The balanced chemical equation is given as:

3KOH(aq)+H_3PO_4(aq)\rightarrow K_3PO_4(aq)+3H_2O(l)

According to reaction, 3 moles of potassium hydroxide recats with 1 mole of phosphoric acid to give 1 mole of potassium phosphate and 3 moles of water.
