Balanced equation : C. CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ 4HCl
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:
1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.
2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product
3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1
Reaction
CH₄ + Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ HCl
aCH₄ + bCl₂⇒ CCl₄+ cHCl
C, left=a, right=1⇒a=1
H, left=4a, right=c⇒4a=c⇒4.1=c⇒c=4
Cl, left=2b, right=4+c⇒2b=4+c⇒2b=4+4⇒2b=8⇒b=4
The equation becomes :
CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒ CCl₄+ 4HCl
Your answer is B.
Because it says that that carbon burns in presence of oxygen (C+O) which is equal ( => ) to Carbon Dioxide (
)
Answer:
B. Charges ( a slight positive charge on one end, and a slight negative charge on the other).
