Write a balanced equation for
(a) the combustion (reaction with oxygen gas) of glucose, C6H12O6, to give carbon dioxide and water.
(b) the reaction between xenon tetrafluoride gas and water to give xenon, oxygen, and hydrogen fluoride gases.
(c) the reaction between aluminum and iron(III) oxide to give aluminum oxide and iron.
(d) the formation of ammonia gas from its elements.
(e) the reaction between sodium chloride, sulfur dioxide gas, steam, and oxygen to give sodium sulfate and hydrogen chloride gas.
(a)
Interpretation:
The balanced chemical reaction should be determined..
Concept introduction:.
A chemical reaction is said to be balanced if all the constituent atoms are same on both sides of the reaction arrow. A balanced chemical reaction is in accordance with the law of conservation of mass.
Answer to Problem 51QAP
Explanation of Solution
The combustion reaction of glucose to give carbon dioxide and water is as follows:.
To balance the number of carbon atoms give coefficient 6 to
Now, to balance the number of hydrogen atoms give coefficient 6 to
At the last, give coefficient 6 to
