balanced equation H2+O2 is equal to H2O
Answers
2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O
is the balance equation .
Hello Mate,
Explanation÷
From the original equation, you first need to write
each component separately÷
Ha +Og = HO
Left side: H = 2;0 = 2 (number based on the
subscript)
Right side: H = 2;0 =1 (number based on the
subscripts; no subscript means that the element
is just 1)
Notice that the number of H is already balance
but the number ofO is not. In order to balance
the O. you need to multiply the element by 2, but
you CANNOT do this by simply changing the
subscript.
Hence,
H2+O2 = 2H20
Left side: H = 2:0 = 2
Right side: H = 2x 2 = 4;0 = 1x2 = 2
You also multiply the left side H by 2. Hence,
2H2 +Oz = 2H20
2H2 +Oz = 2H20
Left side: H=2 x2 =4;0 =2
2H2 +Oz = 2H20
Left side: H=2 x2 =4;0 =2
Right side: H = 2 x2 = 4;0 = 1 x2 = 2
Now the equation is balanced
Hope this helps you
