Question

_C + _H2 + _02 → _C2H6O
Balance equation

Answer 1

4C + 6H2 + O2 — 2C2H6O

Step-by-step 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

Answer 2

Balance : C + H₂ + O₂ ----> C₂H₆O

Step-by-step 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
