Question

Write the skeletal equation for the following reaction
1. Hydrogen sulphate reacts with Sulphur dioxide to form sulphur and water
2 Methane on burning combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water

2. What is the need to balance equations
3.

Answer 1

Explanation:

2.we need to balance the equation to follow the law of conservation of mass

2. methane ch4+ o2 gives co2 and h2o

Answer 2

Explanation:

1 ) H₂S + SO₂ -----》S + H₂O

2 ) CH₄ + O₂ ----- 》 CO₂ + H₂O

3 ) A chemical Equation should be balanced so that it follows the law or conservation of mass

A balanced chemical equation occurs when number of the different atoms in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side.

Balancing chemical equations is a process of trial and error.
