An atom is the smallest unit of matter that has the properties of an element. It is composed of a dense core called the nucleus and a series of outer shells occupied by orbiting electrons. The nucleus, composed of protons and neutrons, is at the center of an atom.
Explanation:
The amount if protons is the same as the amount of electrons, so it would be 8. The charge is -2. Look at oxygen in the periodic table.
The balanced equation is
<span>2 C6H6 +15 O2 = 12 CO2 + 6 H2O </span>
<span>the ratio between C6H6 and CO2 is 2 : 12 </span>
<span>moles CO2 produced = 7.94 x 12 / 2 =47.6</span>
