How to Write Balanced Chemical Equations -<br> FeS + O2 - Fe,02 + SO2
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

FeS + O2 - Fe,02 + SO2

Explanation:

You have to see that no of Atoms are equal on both sides or not.

FeS + O2 - Fe,02 + SO2

Ferrous is balanced on both sides and also sulphur but oxygen is not balanced .

Ino left side oxygen is 2 while on right it's 4.

So, we have to balanced Oxygen.

FeS + 2O2 - Fe,02 + SO2

Now see it's balanced (we insert 2 on left side to balance the oxygen)

Sodium tripolyphosphate is used in detergents to make them effective in hard water. calculate the oxidation number of phosphorus
Fed [463]
Step 1:
           
Write molecular Formula,

                                                Na₅P₃O₁₀
Step 2:
         
Assign Oxidation number to Na (which is +1) and O (which is -2), and X (unknown) for P.
                                               (+1)₅ + (X)₃ + (-2)₁₀  = 0

Zero means overall charge on molecule is zero (Neutral).

Step 3:
           
Now solve for X,
                                               (+5) + (X ÷ 3) + (-20)  =  0

                                                X ÷ 3  =  -5 + 20
                                
                                                X ÷ 3  =  +15

                                                      X  =  +15 ÷ 3

                                                      X  =  +5

Result:
           Oxidation number of P is +5.

If 2 different gases have the same volumes but different masses, how will their densities compare?
olga_2 [115]

can i have brainiest

The two samples will have the same density because they are the same substance. The volume will have increased just enough to balance the greater mass. Key Concept- When substances have the same volumes but different masses, the substance having the greatest mass will be the most dense.
