Atomic Number. (Or the number of protons in that element, same thing)
Answer:
Multiply the number of moles of butane by its molar mass, 58.12g/mol, to produce the mass of butane. Mass of butane = 18.8g.
Explanation:
Part B:
The mass of water produced when 4.86 g of butane(C4H10) react with excess oxygen is calculated as below
calculate the moles of C4H10 used = mass/molar mass
moles = 4.86g/58 g/mol =0.0838 moles
write a balanced equation for reaction
2 C4H10 + 13 O2 = 8 CO2 + 10 H2O
by use of mole ratio between C4H10 to H2O which is 2:10 the moles of
H20= 0.0838 x10/2 = 0.419 moles of H2O
mass = moles x molar mass
=0.419 molx 18 g/mol = 7.542 grams of water is formed
Atoms combine because they are all working toward getting 8 valence electrons, except for noble gases. It is in their nature.
If you need a better explanation just ask in the comments.

I think you forgot to give the options along with the question. I am answering the question based on my knowledge and research. "Test a third group that does not receive the supplement" would be the procedure that would have made the <span>outcome of this study more valid. I hope the answer helps you.</span>
Answer:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
Explanation:
HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2
The equation can be balance as follow:
Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2
Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:
HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:
2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2
Now the equation is balanced.
The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2
The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
