Good Day....

Problem:

Ethane gas(C2H4) reacts with molecular oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide gas and liquid water, write the full balanced equation for this reaction with all states of matter labeled for each species.

Given:

                       C2H4    +    O2    →    CO2  +    H2O

Solution:

  • The type of chemical reaction is combustion reaction.
  • To balance the equation we have to make sure that the number of elements in the reactant is equal to the number of elements in the product.

Answer:

Balanced chemical equation:

         C2H4 (g)   +   3 O2 (g)    →    2 CO2 (g)  +   2 H2O (g)

                      C = 2                       C = 2

                      H = 4                        H = 4

                      O = 3 x 2 = 6            O = 4 + 2 = 6  

Hope it helps...=)
