The heat of fusion for water is the amount of energy needed for water to :
c.melt
Row or periods have in common is the valence electron count. The valence electron count goes up as you move across the periodic table. Also atomic size gets smaller as you move from left to right
Answer:
a = 4
b = 3
Explanation:
<u>SOLUTION :-</u>
Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-
2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂
⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3
<u></u>
<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>
<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
- Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
<em>In product side of equation :-</em>
- Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
- Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
- Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6
Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.
