How do i baland the symbol equation C10H22= C6H14+ C2H4?
Balancing such type of equation is done by hit and trial method: First look for No. of C & H atoms both sides, if you find lesser in either side than try to balance by multiplying either side by integers (1, 2 , 3, 4, 5 – – – – -). In given equation: C10H22= C6H14+ C2H4 right hand side no. of H and C are short by 4 and 2 in compare of left side, so we can choose C2H4 to multiply by 2 to get the result.
