Here we have 2 in reactants but in productus why 2 is removed
Answers
Answer:
because valency of hydrogen is one and valency of oxygen is 2 and when we react it then,
H2+O2------>H2O
Answer:
Actually the reaction is not balanced.
H² + O² = H²O
No. of H in the reactant = 2
No. of O in the reactant = 2
No. of H in the product = 2
No. of O in the product = 1
So the no. of O is not same in both the side so the reaction is not balanced.
TO BALANCE -
We will multiply 2 with H²O
Reaction-
H²+ O² = 2H²O NOTE - WE CANNOT MULTIPLY 2 WITH ONLY O WE NEED TO MULTIPLY WITH THE WHOLE COMPOUND.
Now the no. of O in the reactant = no. of O in the product.
But the no. of H is not same
No. of H in the reactant = 2
No. of H in the product = 4
We will multiply 2 with H²
Reaction -
2H² + O² = 2H²O
so, now it is balanced.
