Fill in the coefficients that will balance the following reaction: (Note: Use 1 as coefficient where appropriate.)

CH4 +
O2 →
CO2 +
H2O

CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O

Explanation:

There are one mole of O2 on the left side and on the right side there are three moles of O2. And to fix it you would need to make it two moles of O2 to have four molecules of O2 on the left side. Then you would make two moles of H2O to have a total of four moles of O2 on the right. Therefore, CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O is the answer.

b. examine and describe cells

explanation:

let the different atoms be x and y. each with four protons and same mass will be represented as follows.

mass number is number of protons + number of neutrons.

            and  

since, it is given that one has a negative charge while the other is neutral. therefore, there will be increase in number of protons and the atom will be represented as follows.

according to periodic table, mass number of beryllium is 9 and it has atomic number 4 so, the atoms will be and .  

the protons and neutrons will be located inside the nucleus whereas the electrons will be revolving around the nucleus.
