Question

CH3CH2OH+O2= CO2+H20
After balancing It we get
CH3CH2OH+3O2 =2CO2+3H2O
the number of oxygen atoms in RHS is 7
But the no of oxygen atoms in LHS is 3O2 which means 3×2=6 why

Answer 1

Answer:

it is balanced

Explanation:

see in rhs there are 7 oxygen atoms i.e,3o2 and oxygen in OH also    so the equation is correct
