Accepted Answer
| Question: | 10 Hydrogen (H) + 5 Oxygen (O) |
| Solution: | 10 Hydrogen (H) + 5 Oxygen (O) → 10 H₂O |
| Chemical Equation: | 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O |
| Explanation: | This reaction represents the formation of water. It's a combustion reaction. The balanced equation shows that 2 moles of hydrogen gas (H₂) react with 1 mole of oxygen gas (O₂) to produce 2 moles of water (H₂O). 🧪 The initial equation 10H + 5O is incorrect because hydrogen and oxygen exist as diatomic molecules (H₂ and O₂) under normal conditions. Balancing chemical equations ensures the law of conservation of mass is followed.⚖️ |
