Quick comprehension check
“If you start with 2 atoms of hydrogen (H) and 1 atom of oxygen (O), and they react to form water (H₂O), how many atoms of hydrogen and oxygen are in the water molecule? In the reaction CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O, how many carbon (C) atoms are there on the left side of the equation (reactants)? How many carbon atoms are there on the right side of the equation (products)? ”
