Answer: It is important for an equation to be balanced because if it is not then the reactants won't match the products.
Explanation: I don't know if you will understand this but here:
Let's say you're cooking eggs, you're reactants so to speak would be 3 eggs and 1 tablespoon of oil so you put it together using heat and a pan. Your products have to match what you have in the beginning. You cannot have an equation that looks like this
Reactants = 3eggs + 1Tbsp oil ---pan/heat---> 6eggs + 1 cup of oil
You cannot get something from what you don't have. The number of how much of an element you have must be the same of both sides of the equation.
Answer:
The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Molar mass helium = 4.0 g/mol
Molar mass O2 = 32 g/mol
Step 2: Graham's law
Graham's Law of Effusion states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass : 1/(Mr)^0.5
Rate of escape for He = 1/(4.0)^0.5 = 0.5
Rate of escape for O2 = 1/(32)^0.5 = 0.177
The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s
