Explanation:
Below is an attachment containing the solution.
I believe it’s B. Electrons
Answer:
C. Recheck the numbers of each atom on each side of the equation
to make sure the sides are equal.
D. Choose coefficients that will balance the equation
Explanation:
In balancing of chemical equation, the number of atoms on both sides must be equal in adherence to the law of conservation of mass.
Using the method of inspection, the equation is first observed to know the relationship between the combining atoms and the resulting ones.
After observing the reaction, put a coefficient that will balance the equation. Then recheck the number of each atom on both side of the equation. One can repeat the process till the equation is balanced.
oxygen's atomic number is 8
1s22s22p4 is the electron configuration
2+2=4 4+4=8
