In the second step of this reaction, isocyanic acid reacts to form melamine and carbon dioxide: hnco(l)→c3n3(nh2)3(l)+co2(g) balance this reaction and enter the coefficients below. enter the coefficients in order separated by commas (e.g., 1,4,5, where 1 indicates the lack of a coefficient).

Respuesta :

Formula of isocyanic acid is HNCO. It colourless, volatile compound. It is poisonous inorganic compound. Melamine is synthesized from urea. The reaction involves two steps. In first step, urea gets converted to isocyanic acid  which is an intermediate. In the second step, isocyanic acid gives melamine (molecular formula C₃H₆N₆) and carbon dioxide (CO₂). The balanced chemical reaction involved in second step is given below:

6 HNCO → 1 C₃N₃(NH₂)₃ + 3CO₂

The co-efficient of the reaction are: 6, 1, 3

Answer : The coefficients are 6, 1, 3.

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

[tex]HNCO(l)\rightarrow C_3N_3(NH_2)_3(l)+CO_2(g)[/tex]

This chemical reaction is an unbalanced reaction because in this reaction, the number of all the atoms are not balanced.

In order to balanced the chemical reaction, the coefficient 6 is put before the [tex]HNCO[/tex] and the coefficient 3 is put before the [tex]CO_2[/tex]

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction will be,

[tex]6HNCO(l)\rightarrow 1C_3N_3(NH_2)_3(l)+3CO_2(g)[/tex]
