Combustion of hexane can be illustrated by the following reaction:
2C6H14 + 19O2 ...........> 12CO2 + 14H2O
From the periodic table:
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of hexane = 6(12)+14(1) = 86 grams
mass of water = 2(1)+16 = 18 grams
From the balanced equation above:
2(86) = 172 grams of hexane produce 252 grams of water. To know the amount of water produced from 1.33 grams of hexane, all you have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of water = (1.33x252) / 172 = 1.9486 grams
Answer:
Fe₂O₃ + 3Zn → 2Fe + 3ZnO
Explanation:
Step 1: RxN
Fe₂O₃ + Zn → Fe + ZnO
Step 2: Balance RxN
We need 2 Fe's on both sides.
We also need 3 O's on both sides.
- If we multiply ZnO by 3, we will need 3 Zn's as well
Fe₂O₃ + 3Zn → 2Fe + 3ZnO
Physical change because water is not a gas or change . you can see through it.
