Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when (c) the hydrocarbon styrene, C8H81l2, is combusted in air
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the reactants and products in the combustion reaction. The reactants are styrene \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_8 \) and oxygen \( \text{O}_2 \), and the products are carbon dioxide \( \text{CO}_2 \) and water \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \).
Write the unbalanced chemical equation: \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_8 + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \).
Balance the carbon atoms first. There are 8 carbon atoms in styrene, so you need 8 \( \text{CO}_2 \) molecules: \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_8 + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 8\text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \).
Balance the hydrogen atoms next. There are 8 hydrogen atoms in styrene, so you need 4 \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \) molecules: \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_8 + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow 8\text{CO}_2 + 4\text{H}_2\text{O} \).
Finally, balance the oxygen atoms. Count the total oxygen atoms needed on the right side (8 \( \text{CO}_2 \) gives 16 O, and 4 \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \) gives 4 O, totaling 20 O). Therefore, you need 10 \( \text{O}_2 \) molecules on the left: \( \text{C}_8\text{H}_8 + 10\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 8\text{CO}_2 + 4\text{H}_2\text{O} \).

Balancing Chemical Equations
Balancing chemical equations ensures that the number of atoms for each element is the same on both sides of the equation, adhering to the law of conservation of mass. This process involves adjusting coefficients in front of compounds to achieve balance, which is crucial for accurately representing chemical reactions.
