An equation is balanced when the same number of each element is represented on the reactant and product sides. Equations must be balanced to accurately reflect the law of conservation of matter.
(a) oxidation-reduction (addition); (b) acid-base (neutralization); (c) oxidation-reduction (combustion)
It is an oxidation-reduction reaction because the oxidation state of the silver changes during the reaction.
(a) H +1, P +5, O −2; (b) Al +3, H +1, O −2; (c) Se +4, O −2; (d) K +1, N +3, O −2; (e) In +3, S −2; (f) P +3, O −2
(a) acid-base; (b) oxidation-reduction: Na is oxidized, H+ is reduced; (c) oxidation-reduction: Mg is oxidized, Cl2 is reduced; (d) acid-base; (e) oxidation-reduction: P3− is oxidized, O2 is reduced; (f) acid-base

(a) 0.0686 mol Mg, 1.67 g Mg; (b) 2.701 10−3 mol O2, 0.08644 g O2; (c) 6.43 mol MgCO3, 542 g MgCO3 (d) 768 mol H2O, 13.8 kg H2O; (e) 16.31 mol BaO2, 2762 g BaO2; (f) 0.207 mol C2H4, 5.81 g C2H4
Convert mass of ethanol to moles of ethanol; relate the moles of ethanol to the moles of ether produced using the stoichiometry of the balanced equation. Convert moles of ether to grams; divide the actual grams of ether (determined through the density) by the theoretical mass to determine the percent yield; 87.6%
The conversion needed is Then compare the amount of Cr to the amount of acid present. Cr is the limiting reactant.
