Answer:

3 is the coefficient of oxygen.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

CH₃OH + O₂      →     CO₂ + H₂O

Balanced chemical equation:

2CH₃OH + 3O₂      →     2CO₂ + 4H₂O

The given reaction is combustion reaction. In this reaction methanol is burn in the presence of oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water.

The balance equation show reaction also follow the law of conservation of mass.

This law was given by French chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

A beta particle is an electron and it has a -1 charge and zero mass.

Beta decay by emitting an electron is called as β⁻ decay. When this happens, a neutron of the element converts into a proton by emitting an electron. Hence, the mass of daughter nucleus is same as parent atom but atomic number/number of protons is higher by 1 than atomic number of parent atom.

In a β⁻ decay, the symbol is used as ₋₁⁰β or ₋₁⁰e.
             -1 is for charge
<span>              0 is for the mass of the particle
