Answer:

4 NH₃ (g) + 3 O₂ (g) ----> 2 N₂ (g) + 6 H₂O (g) + energy

Explanation:

The unbalanced equation:

NH₃ (g) + O₂ (g) ----> N₂ (g) + H₂O (g) + energy

<u>Reactants:</u> 1 nitrogen, 3 hydrogen, 2 oxygen

<u>Products:</u> 2 nitrogen, 2 hydrogen, 1 oxygen

The sort-of balanced equation

2 NH₃ (g) + 1/2 O₂ (g) ----> N₂ (g) + 3 H₂O (g) + energy

I first started by balancing the nitrogens. This then lead me to balance the hydrogens. When I went to balance the oxygens, only a 1/2 coefficient would work. However, 1/2 coefficients are technically incorrect. To get rid of this coefficient, you need to multiply each coefficient by 2.

The balanced equation:

4 NH₃ (g) + 3 O₂ (g) ----> 2 N₂ (g) + 6 H₂O (g) + energy

<u>Reactants:</u> 4 nitrogen, 12 hydrogen, 6 oxygen

<u>Products:</u> 4 nitrogen, 12 hydrogen, 6 oxygen

Now, all of the elements are equal on both sides and there are no 1/2 coefficients. These are the smallest whole-number coefficients because some of the numbers cannot be further simplified (3).

Which machine is the least simple? a bike a screw an inclined plane a lever
Ivenika [448]

Answer: A bike

A bike is composed of various simple machines. It has a wheel and axle as one component, and it also has screws to hold the various parts together, along with levers and pulleys that are connected to the pedals. So all of these simple machine concepts work together to help transport the rider from point A to point B.

The other answer choices of screw, inclined plane, and lever, are fairly simple machines that don't have many things going on at once compared to a bike.
