Methane (CH) burns in the presence of Oxygen (0.) to make Carbon Dioxide (CO) and Water (H20) according to the following chemical equation: CH. + 20 - CO2 + 2H2O How many molecules of Oxygen are consumed if 24 molecules of Carbon Dioxide are produced?

Anions are negative charged ions

The population of unionid mussels decreased after zebra mussels were introduced. zebra mussels competed with the unionid mussels for food. the zebra mussels were able to displace the unionid mussels, allowing the zebra mussel population to increase  over the years. the unionid mussel population decreased because  of lack of food.

  balanced chemical equations follow the law of conservation of mass and charges. the masses and charges on either sides of the equation should be balanced.in conservation of mass, the number of atoms of each element on left side should be equal to the number of atoms of each element on the right side of the equation.1)k₂so₄ + 2ca(no₃)₂ --> 2kno₃ + 2caso₄number of ions        left side             right side  k⁺         2                         2so₄²⁻   1                         2ca²⁺     2                         2no₃⁻     4                         2in this equation the masses of so₄²⁻ and no₃ are not balanced. therefore this equation violates the law of conservation of mass2)ti + 2 cl₂ > ticl₄        left side       right side  ti           1               1cl           4               4this equation follows the law of conservation of mass3)2c₂h₂ + 5o₂ > 4co₂   + 2h₂o              left side     right side  c               4               4h               4               4o             10             10this equation follows the law of conservation of mass4)baso₄ + 2naoh --> ba(oh)₂   + na₂so₄          left side       right side  ba       1                   1so₄²⁻     1                   1na         2                   2  oh⁻       2                   2this equation follows the law of conservation of massanswer is 1st equation
