Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Explanation:

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) react with oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).

The equation can be written as follow:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

There are 6 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of CO₂ as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + H₂O

There are 12 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of H₂O as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

There are a total of 8 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 18 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 6 in front of O₂ as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now, the equation is balanced.

Aqueous solutions of copper (II) bromide and silver (1) acetate react to form solid
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

5.63 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

CuBr₂(aq) + 2 AgCH₃CO₂(aq)  ⇒  2 AgBr(s) + Cu(CH₃CO₂)₂(aq)

Step 2: Calculate the reacting moles of copper (II) bromide

30.0 mL of 0.499 M CuBr₂ react. The reacting moles of CuBr₂ are:

0.0300L \times \frac{0.499mol}{L} = 0.0150mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles formed of silver (I) bromide

The molar ratio of CuBr₂ to AgBr is 1:2. The moles formed of AgBr are 2/1 × 0.0150 mol = 0.0300 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0300 mol of AgBr

The molar mass of AgBr is 187.77 g/mol.

0.0300 mol \times \frac{187.77g}{mol} = 5.63 g
