Balance : C + H₂ + O₂ ----> C₂H₆O
Explanation:
Chemical reaction
When two or more substances react and form some new substance it is called as chemical reaction .
For example :
C + H₂ + O₂ ----> C₂H₆O
Chemical equation : it is the representation of chemical reaction in terms of symbols ,molecular formulas ,moles , states etc .
As we know all chemical reaction obeys law of chemical combination therefore chemical reaction need to be balanced .
Balance : C + H₂ + O₂ ----> C₂H₆O
2C + H₂ + O₂ ----> C₂H₆O
Answer:
4C + 6H2 + O2 — 2C2H6O
Explanation:
The coefficients are 4,6,1 and 2. The moles of the elements reacting must be equal to the moles of the products in order to have a balanced equation.
From the equation, when 4 moles of carbon(C) reacts with 6moles of hydrogen (H) and 1 mole of oxygen(O),
We have ,
4C + 6H2O + O2 — 2C2H6O2
