How many possible values are there for the quantity "c", considering a specific chemical reaction represented by the equation aA+bB--> cC +dD, in this equation the letters A,B,C and D represent chemicals, and the letters a,b,c and d represent confessions in the balanced equation.

Respuesta :

Answer:

There is only one possible value for the quantity "c"

Explanation:

There is only one possible value for the quantity "c". This is because the a,b,c and d represent number of moles in he balanced equation. And since the number of moles of a particular substance (atom or compound) in a balanced equation must be distinct, it (the substance) can only have one value. For example, consider the equation below

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ ⇒ 4CO₂ + 2H₂O

It can be seen from the above equation that the individual number of moles are distinct and have just one possible value. And if Câ‚‚Hâ‚‚ is A, Oâ‚‚ is B, COâ‚‚ is C and Hâ‚‚O is D, then 4 is "c".

Thus, "c" is the number of moles for the substance "C" with just one possible value.
