Question

NEED HELP FOR THIS ONE

Answer 1

Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ = 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

2 KO₂ + H₂O = 2 KOH + 1.5 O₂

Explanation:

Let's consider the following unbalanced equation.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ = CO₂ + H₂O

We will start balancing H atoms (higher atomicity) by multiplying H₂O by 6.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ = CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Then, we will balance C atoms by multiplying CO₂ by 6.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ = 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Finally, to get the balanced equation, we will multiply O₂ by 6.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ = 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Let's consider the following unbalanced equation.

KO₂ + H₂O = KOH + O₂

We will multiply KO₂ and KOH by 2 to balance K and H atoms.

2 KO₂ + H₂O = 2 KOH + O₂

Finally, to get the balanced equation, we will multiply O₂ by 1.5.

2 KO₂ + H₂O = 2 KOH + 1.5 O₂
