Answer 1

To balance the equation 4Ag2O → Ag + O2, first we will analyze the reactants and products.

1. In 4Ag2O, we have:

   • 4 moles of Ag2O which gives us:
     • 8 Ag atoms (because each Ag2O contains 2 Ag)
     • 4 O atoms (because each Ag2O contains 1 O)

2. In the products, we have:

   • Each O2 contains 2 O atoms, so to balance with 4 O atoms from the reactants, we need 2 O2 molecules.

Therefore, the balanced products would be 8 Ag and 2 O2.

The balanced equation will look like this:

4Ag2O → 8Ag + 2O2

You can drag the responses to the correct areas:

• Drag "Ag" to the response area for the silver atom on the right side.
• Drag "O2" to the response area for the oxygen on the right side.

So the final answer will be:

4Ag2O → 8Ag + 2O2
