Question

Which set of coefficients balances the equation?

CH₄ → C₃H₈ + H₂

a. 3,1,1

b. 3,2,1

c. 3,1,2

d. 6,2,2

Answer 1

The balanced equation is CH₄ → C₃H₈ + H₂ with coefficients of 3, 1, 2 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced equation is CH₄ → C₃H₈ + H₂ with coefficients of 3, 1, 2 respectively. The equation is balanced because the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation.
