List the number of each type of atom on the left side of the equation 2C10H22(l)+31O2(g)→20CO2(g)+22H2O(g)

Enter your answers separated by commas (the order of the numbers is the same as the order of the elements on the left side of the equation).

Answer:

20, 44, 62

Explanation:

To find the number of atoms of each element, we multiply coefficient and subscript  

For example [tex]5 Ca_1 Cl_2[/tex] contains  

5 × 1 = 5 ,Ca atoms and

5 × 2 = 10, Cl atoms  

If there is a bracket in the chemical formula  

For example [tex]3Ca_3 (P_1 O_4 )_2[/tex]

we multiply coefficient × subscript × number outside the bracket to find the number of atoms  

(Please note: 3 is the coefficient, and if there is no number given then 1 will be the coefficient )

So

3 × 3 = 9 , Ca atoms  

3 × 1 × 2 = 6, P atoms  

3 × 4 × 2 = 24, O atoms are present.

So let us find the number of atoms of each element on the left  side of the equation  

[tex]2C_{10} H_{22} (l)+31O_2 (g)\Rightarrow 20CO_2 (g)+22H_2 O(g)[/tex]

Number of C atoms = 2 × 10 = 20

Number of H atoms = 2 × 22 = 44

Number of O atoms = 31 × 2 = 62

20, 44, 62  are the Answers.
