Answer to Problem 83A

No, thecoefficients in a balance chemical equation don’t represent volume ratios for solids and liquids.

Explanation of Solution

Avogadro’s Law is applicable to gases only. It is not applicable for solids and liquids. Therefore, thecoefficients in a balance chemical equation don’t represent volume ratios for solids and liquids.

Conclusion

Thecoefficients in a balance chemical equation don’t represent volume ratios for solids and liquids.
