If you change the 2 in front of 2O, to a 3, the result of the right side of the equation is 3CO_2+6H_2O

Given the chemical equation expressed as:

CH_4 + 2O_2 \rightarrow CO_2 + 2H_2O

From the equation, we can see that 1 mole of methane reacts with 2 moles of oxygen to form 1 mole of carbon dioxide and 2 moles of water.

If the <u>number of moles of oxygen</u> is replaced with 3 moles, the correct equation will be expressed as:

3CH_4 + 2(3O_2)  \rightarrow3CO2 + 6H2O

This shows that if you change the 2 in front of 2O, to a 3, the result of the right side of the equation is 3CO_2+6H_2O

CH4 + 2O2→CO2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

CH4 + O2→CO2 + H2O

First look at the C atoms. At first glance they are balanced with 1 C on each side.

Now look at the H atoms. They are not balanced. There are 4 H atoms on the left side and 2 H atoms on the right. Place a coefficient of 2 in front of the H2O. We now have 4 H atoms on both sides.

CH4 + O2→CO2 + 2H2O

Now look at the O atoms. They are not balanced. There are 2 O atoms on the left side and 4 on the right. Place a coefficient of 2 in front of the O2. We now have 4 O atoms on both sides.

CH4 + 2O2→CO2 + 2H2O

The equation is now balanced. Each side has 1 C atom, 4 H atoms, and 4 O atoms.

why was the mass lost when the reaction was done in the normal setup but stayed the same when it was done in the gas collection
german
<h2>Answer : Law of conservation of mass</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

The law of conservation of mass states that in any reaction mass is neither created nor lost it has to remain constant in a system.

In this case, when the reaction setup was done in normal way the mass was  lost in surrounding was not considered nor being calculated; whereas when the reaction was studied in a closed system where the gas was collected after the reaction the mass changes was noted down which helped to prove the point of law of conservation of mass and energy.

One can consider an example of soda can where the carbonated drink contains pressurized carbon dioxide gas. when opened the gas bubbles gets lost into the surroundings and we don't measure the mass changes. Instead if the soda can was opened in such a way where the gas evolved was measured then the mass changed would remain the same.

A balloon contains 5 L of oxygen at a pressure of 90 kPa. How much oxygen will the balloon contain if the pressure is lowered to
laila [671]
Answer is: volume will be 6,7 L.
Boyle's Law: the pressure volume law - <span> volume of a given amount of gas held  varies inversely with the applied pressure when the temperature and mass are constant.
p</span>₁V₁ = p₂V₂.
90 kPa · 5 L = 67 kPa · V₂.
V₂ = 90 kPa · 5 L / 67 kPa.
V₂ = 6,7 L, but same amount of oxygen.
