Is this equation completely balanced? 2C8H8 + 25O2 8CO2 + 18H2O No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on

both sides of the equation are not equal. No, because the number of oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal. Yes, because all of the coefficients are in their lowest whole number ratio. No, because the number of hydrogen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal. Yes, because the number of products is equal to the number of reactants.

<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
                   2C</span>₈H₈  +  25O₂   →   8CO₂ +  18H₂<span>O
LHS:  C - 16                                           RHS:  C - 8
          H - 16                                                     H - 36
          O - 50                                                    O - 34

Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced.  This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."

</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈  +  10O₂   →   8CO₂ +  4H₂O

1 . a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions covalent bond
liberstina [14]

Explanation:

When there occurs sharing of electrons between two chemically combining atoms then it forms a covalent bond. Generally, a covalent bond is formed between two non-metals.

An ionic bond is defined as the bond formed due to transfer of one or more number of electrons from one atom to another. An ionic bond is always formed between a metal and a non-metal.

Every atom of an element will have orbitals in which electrons are found. These orbitals are known as energy level.

A molecule is defined as the smallest particle present in a substance or atom.

A metallic bond is formed due to mobile valence electrons shared by positive nuclei in a metallic crystal.

Thus, we can conclude that given statements are correctly matched as follows.

1).  a chemical bond formed by the electrostatic attraction between ions - ionic bond

2).  a chemical bond formed by two electrons that are shared between two atoms - covalent bond

3). the orbitals of an atom where electrons are found - energy level

4).  the smallest particle of a covalently bonded substance - molecule

5).  a bond characteristic of metals in which mobile valence electrons are shared among positive nuclei in the metallic crystal - metallic bond
